Title:
  [touch] NetworkManager needs to inhibit sleep if hotspot is active

Status in the base for Ubuntu mobile products:
  New
Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu RTM:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  As Ubuntu touch uses an auto-suspend model, it's possible for the
  system to be suspended while a user has a hotspot active and in use.

  In order to prevent such behavior, we should modify NetworkManager to
  inhibit suspend via powerd's DBus interface when hotspot is active and
  one or more clients are connected to the hotspot.   As a first pass,
  inhibiting suspend when hotspot is active would probably be
  sufficient.   This could probably be implemented via a NM dispatcher
  script, which would run when the hotspot is activated.
