Suspend button shown when screen is locked

Originally created by @Gaff on #15640 (Redmine)

When the screen is locked a suspend button is shown in the top right menu. It seems that tails doesn’t normally allow suspend so this is at-best inconsistent. At worst it would allow an attacker to suspend the machine and then perform advanced forensic attacks later.

Personally I think that the regular shutdown and restart options should be available even if the screen is locked - this would allow for emergency situations.
