simbatt: Provide instructions for how to test the driver

Add instructions for how to install the driver, simulate two batteries, modify battery parameters and clean up afterwards.

The instructions assume that testsigning is already enabled with "bcdedit /set testsigning on" and that the driver signing certificate is trusted with "certutil.exe -addstore root simbatt.cer" and "certutil.exe -f -addstore trustedpublisher simbatt.cer".

 You may use this sample as a starting point to implement a battery miniport specific to your needs.

+## How to test
+
+### Driver installation
+```
+:: Install driver
+pnputil /add-driver simbatt.inf /install
+
+:: Simulate two batteries
+devgen /add /instanceid 1 /hardwareid "{6B34C467-CE1F-4c0d-A3E4-F98A5718A9D6}\SimBatt"
+devgen /add /instanceid 2 /hardwareid "{6B34C467-CE1F-4c0d-A3E4-F98A5718A9D6}\SimBatt"
+```
+
+The simulated batteries will have device instance ID `SWD\DEVGEN\1` and `SWD\DEVGEN\2`.
+
+### Modify battery parameters
+Parameters for each simulated battery can be changed through `IOCTL_SIMBATT_SET_STATUS` IOCTL calls with [`BATTERY_STATUS`](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/power/battery-status-str) input. This enables simulation of many power scenarios, such as low charge and switching between AC and DC power. This can be done without any physical batteries attached. One can in fact use the driver to simulate multi-battery setups in a Virtual Machine (VM).
+
+Example of how to simulate 50% battery charge that is currently being discharged:
+```
+BATTERY_STATUS status = {};
+status.PowerState = BATTERY_DISCHARGING;
+status.Capacity = 50; // 50%
+status.Rate = BATTERY_UNKNOWN_RATE;
+status.Voltage = BATTERY_UNKNOWN_VOLTAGE;
+DeviceIoControl(battery, IOCTL_SIMBATT_SET_STATUS, &status, sizeof(status), nullptr, 0, nullptr, nullptr);
+```
+
+### Driver uninstallation
+```
+:: Delete simulated batteries
+devgen /remove "SWD\DEVGEN\1"
+devgen /remove "SWD\DEVGEN\2"
+
+:: Uninstall driver
+pnputil /delete-driver simbatt.inf /uninstall /force
+```
