Add support for checking multiple FSes, too.  :-)

Sort of.  Much of this on_ac_power function was stolen from Debian's
powermgmt_base package's on_ac_power script, but it doesn't support
anything other than ACPI.  (It checks the new sysfs power_supply class
first, and the /proc/acpi/ac_adapter/ directory second.)

If the function can't determine if AC power is available, the script
assumes it's on battery, and exits; this is suboptimal for desktops, but
good for laptops that don't have ACPI turned on for whatever reason.

Well, this script looks at the last-check time, not the last-mount time.
But close enough.

See the attached script (e2check) and sample config file (e2check.conf).
