[Feature Request] Automatically suspend host PC when gaming session ends

[KingIzzymon]

Could you add the following options to 'Host Settings'?

• "Automatically suspend host PC when gaming session ends" true/false
  • "Return host to previous power state (example: host remains awake if it was on before the game session started)" true/false

I have already considered something similar, but there are hard questions that I don't want to think about, such as:

• The stream is terminated via Sunshine/Moonlight, but the game is still running - suspend or no?
• The game is no longer running, but the Sunshine/Moonlight session is still active for some reason (from Buddy's perspective) - suspend or no?
• What happens if the connection is lost for a long time, does it mean that the gaming session has ended?

There are also some other edge cases that make it hard to properly implement, therefore I will not implement this feature. However, you're free to try to get this working yourself and create a PR.

Makes sense. I was figuring just keeping it simple in that, "if stream started from SteamDeck, and if stream closed by steam deck, then handle options X, Y, Z" and ignoring all other cases.

If I have time, I'll work on this but going to prioritize simplifying setup. That way your plugin has more potential visibility/contributors.

Just a tip if you're going to try to implement this is you need to implement it in Buddy first. PcControl is the class you would be looking for to edit somehow.
