Title:
  [system] the phone should switch itself off before completely draining
  battery

Status in The Power Indicator:
  Confirmed
Status in Ubuntu UX bugs:
  Fix Committed
Status in “indicator-power” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  the phone should switch itself off at around ~5% remaining battery.

  This is to preserve a little battery for use cases such as:

  * turn it back on once or twice for urgent short phone calls
  * prevent the battery from going into a state where it can't be charged any more
  * have enough power to turn itself on again and trigger an alarm

  --------------------------------
  Desired resolution

  The following actions should take place as the phone/tablet runs out of battery:
  at 10% - Notification battery under 10%
  at 5% - Notification saying battery level is critical, will shutdown soon.
  at 1-2% - Shell fades out, animation fades in (same as startup animation), phone initiates full shutdown. 

  The notification should be a clickable notification with the tap
  action mapped to dismiss.
