platform/x86: dell-laptop: Do not fail when encountering unsupported batteries
If the battery hook encounters a unsupported battery, it will return an error. This in turn will cause the battery driver to automatically unregister the battery hook. On machines with multiple batteries however, this will prevent the battery hook from handling the primary battery, since it will always get unregistered upon encountering one of the unsupported batteries. Fix this by simply ignoring unsupported batteries.
