of: thermal: Introduce sustainable power for a thermal zone

Introduce an optional property called, sustainable-power, which
represents the power (in mW) which the thermal zone can safely
dissipate.

If provided the property is parsed and associated with the thermal
zone via the thermal zone parameters.
