            This method tells UPower that the Suspend() or Hibernate() method
            is about to be called.
            This allows UPower to emit the Suspending signal whilst
            session activities are happening that have to be done before the
            suspend process is started.

            This method would typically be called by the session power
            management daemon, before it locks the screen and waits for the
            screen to fade to black.
            The session power management component would then call Suspend() or
            Hibernate() when these syncronous tasks have completed.
