cpupower: change binding's makefile to use -lcpupower
Originally I believed I needed the .o files to make the bindings. The
linking failed due to a missing .so link in Fedora or by using make
install-lib from the cpupower directory. Amend the makefile and the
README.
Big thanks to Wander Lairson Costa <wander@redhat.com> for the help.
