nRF5x Power management demo
###########################
Overview
********
This sample demonstrates a power manager app that uses the Zephyr
power management infrastructure to enter into Low Power state.
This app will cycle through the following power schemes each time the system
enters idle state:
1. Low Power State: Low Power State could be SoC, board and/or application
specific. Being in this state is transparent to devices. SOC and devices
do not lose context in this Mode. This example implements two Low Power
states, which are signaled using LEDs on the development kit:
A. LED1: [X], LED2: [X]: System is active, no low power state is selected.
B. LED1: [X], LED2: [ ]: System is idle, and the SYS_POWER_STATE_LOW_POWER_2
state is selected.
C. LED1: [ ], LED2: [ ]: System is idle, and the SYS_POWER_STATE_LOW_POWER_3
state is selected.
2. Deep Sleep: This Power State is mapped to SYSTEM OFF state. In this mode
all devices on board get suspended. All devices and SOC lose context on
wake up.
The power mode selection is done automatically by residency-based policy
implemented by the Zephyr Power Management Subsystem.
Requirements
************
This application uses nRF51 DK or nRF52 DK board for the demo.

Application creates idleness, due to which System Idle Thread is
scheduled and it enters into various Low Power States.
