bug#53026: 27.2; (battery) errors in Android app Termux

[Lucien Cartier-Tilet]

In the Termux application on Android, evaluating `(battery)' results in
an error due to `/sys/' not being readable on non-rooted phones.

Steps to reproduce:
1. In termux, install Emacs with `pkg install emacs'.
2. Launch Emacs with `emacs -Q'
3. In the `*scratch*' buffer, type and evaluate `(battery)'
4. The expected output due to `/sys/' being unreadable should be the
   text `Battery status not available', however it errors with the
   attached backtrace.

I made a patch I attached to this message in an attempt to prevent
this issue, but I have not had the time to test it yet on my own
phone. It is made from the current `master' branch.
