[Themaintainers] electronics death dates and iFixit

[Kyle Wiens]

Yes, this was a fun piece to work on! Manufacturers clearly didn't have any
answers for them on battery cycle counts.

We need to continue to gather and distribute information on how long
batteries last. Every product should have a publicly disclosed consumeable
lifetime and battery replacement plan.


Cheers,
Kyle Wiens
