Add a Power Profile widget/unit #1209

Description

@kmandarin-orange

One feature built into my current bar, Waybar, is a power profiles toggle, which when clicked cycles through the 2 or 3 available configurations provided by tuned or ppd. I primarily use a laptop, so this feature would be incredibly handy to have in Ironbar, which I'm considering moving to.

For demonstration, this is how it currently works on my bar, only the icons have been changed from Waybar defaults:

I've considered maybe using the custom scripting features in Ironbar, but currently don't have the time to look into making it work that way.

Hopefully I'm not missing something, I just couldn't find anything like this in the documentation. I have no idea how complex this would be to implement though, so if it's non-trivial, I could get by just using the command line. Just something I thought might be nifty to somehow implement, either inside the battery menu or as a separate toggle, or both!
