Support for screen turn off, system suspend and hibernation settings #4

Windows power settings allows the user to configure the time required to turn off the screen, suspend or hibernate. Adding support for this shouldn't be too hard.

Currently researching solutions, and they do seem to be X server exclusive.

xset dpms 600 600 600 to set screen standby, suspend and turn-off times
xautolock -time TIME_MINS -locker 'systemctl suspend' to suspend after a set amount of time. Running xautolock -exit before can stop the previous instance.

Given than xautolock is an external dependency these features are likely to be optional until I or somebody else finds a Wayland alternative.
