Fixes a problem that can occur when a lone package object is
wrapped with an outer package object in order to conform to
the ACPI specification. Can affect these predefined names:
_ALR,_MLS,_PSS,_TRT,_TSS,_PRT,_HPX,_DLM,_CSD,_PSD,_TSD

Repair a common problem with objects that are defined to return
a variable-length Package of sub-objects. If there is only one
sub-object, some BIOS code mistakenly simply declares the single
object instead of a Package with one sub-object. This function
attempts to repair this error by wrapping a Package object around
the original object, creating the correct and expected Package
with one sub-object.
