platform/x86: think-lmi: Add possible_values for ThinkStation
[ Upstream commit 8a02d70679fc1c434401863333c8ea7dbf201494 ]
ThinkStation platforms don't support the API to return possible_values
but instead embed it in the settings string.
Try and extract this information and set the possible_values attribute
appropriately.
