leds: ledtrig-activity: Add a system activity LED trigger
The "activity" trigger was inspired by the heartbeat one, but aims at providing instant indication of the immediate CPU usage. Under idle condition, it flashes 10ms every second. At 100% usage, it flashes 90ms every 100ms. The blinking frequency increases from 1 to 10 Hz until either the load is high enough to saturate one CPU core or 50% load is reached on a single-core system. Then past this point only the duty cycle increases from 10 to 90%. This results in a very visible activity reporting allowing one to immediately tell whether a machine is under load or not, making it quite suitable to be used in clusters.
