Add the firmware string '16U8EMS2.100' to the ALLOWED_FW_1 array.
This enables Embedded Controller support, including battery charge
thresholds, for the MSI GL65 Leopard 9SCXK (MS-16U8) laptop.
The EC memory layout of this firmware matches the existing config:
the CPU and GPU temperatures at 0x68 and 0x80 agree with coretemp and
the NVIDIA driver, the fan mode at 0xf4 reads 0x0d (auto), and the
charge control register is at 0xef.
Tested on MSI GL65 Leopard 9SCXK with EC firmware 16U8EMS2.100 and
BIOS E16U8IMS.504: with AC connected and the battery at 18%, writing 10
to charge_control_end_threshold stops charging ("Not charging", 0 A),
and writing 100 resumes it.
