Adds a HandleLidSwitchDocked option to logind.conf + documentation

Sorry about that, I missed a file in the patch.

I also added the man page to the patch, see if you think it's clear enough.

The option name can be changed, but the one you suggested doesn't really fit.
This option does not do what I originally suggested in my request, but instead
allows the user to define any action to occur when the lid is closed and the
laptop is docked. I chose this design (rather than just a boolean to enable
suspending while docked) because it allows for more flexibility.

Another note: when GNOME 3 is running on the system, it still won't suspend
because GNOME also inhibits suspending when multiple monitors are attached and
they don't want to add a way to disable it. Here is my bug report with more
info: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=734964
