[ Upstream commit c41c36e900a337b4132b12ccabc97f5578248b44 ]
Currently, changing the brightness of the internal display of the Acer TravelMate 5735Z does not work. Pressing the function keys or changing the slider, GNOME Shell 3.36.2 displays the OSD (five steps), but the brightness does not change.
The Acer TravelMate 5735Z shipped with Windows 7 and as such does not trigger our "win8 ready" heuristic for preferring the native backlight interface.
Still ACPI backlight control doesn't work on this model, where as the native (intel_video) backlight interface does work by adding `acpi_backlight=native` or `acpi_backlight=none` to Linux’ command line.
So, add a quirk to force using native backlight control on this model.
