It doesn’t matter here, you already define the _get_ API for just read
the charger type from the saved value(uchger->type), so we can think
the API to make uchger->type from UNKNOW to ONE KNOWN type is *detect*,
because we don't need 2 separate API one for *get* type from HW and another
one for *detect* from HW, only one API involve HW access is enough.

- Detect: (write to and) read from HW to get the charger type,
  save to uchger->type;
- Get: read the charger type from uchger->type.
