[DM-MUG] hibernate

Hello, usually normal "sleep" mode is fine but sometimes I would
prefer to use hibernate. For example, when I'm getting ready to fly it
would be nice to use hibernate so that I'm not slowly wearing my
battery down while I'm waiting in the airport, boarding or taking off.
Likewise I'd rather not shut down completely - that way I can have
some web-pages open to read on the plane and I don't have to waste
time waiting for my applications to load.

I see that if I suspend my laptop and the battery wears completely
down it will hibernate so that I don't loose work, I'd just like to
have a command to do this outright in those rare occasions where I
need to suspend for longer periods of time.
