Need to add a virtual sleep button in system menu

Project Member Reported by lpalmaro@chromium.org, Jan 26 2018

Issue description

OS: Chrome 

Motor impaired users who cannot use the physical keyboard do not have a way to put the Chromebook to sleep, without closing the lid to the Chromebook. We received feedback that we should either: 

a) add a sleep button in the system menu by default, near the power off virtual button 

OR 

b) add a setting in accessibility settings that enables an on-screen button in the shelf/status tray to put the Chromebook to sleep. 

This way, users could utilize a mouse cursor, joystick device, or other controller to access the button and put the Chromebook to sleep.
