profiles: use `med_power_with_dipm` for SATA ALPM
Using min_power can lead to data loss, and med_power_with_dipm
delivers similar power savings without the chance of data loss. [1]
med_power_with_dipm is the default setting[2] in upstream Linux for
SATA Link Power Management, and should provide significant power
savings on laptops using SATA drives over medium_power.

Note: Testing on a SATA system would be appreciated to confirm this patch is setting med_power_with_dipm as expected, since unfortunately I'm not sure when I'll be able to get back to my desktop at home
