logind: optionally handle power, sleep and lid switch events
This takes handling of chassis power and sleep keys as well as the lid switch over from acpid. This logic is enabled by default for power and sleep keys, but not for the lid switch. If a graphical session is in the foreground no action is taken under the assumption that the graphical session does this.
