Improved rules for acpi

ACPID is a daemon, 'acpid', launched from /etc/init.d/acpid, that notifies user-space of events, such as pressing the power-button or closing the laptop lid. Events are defined in /etc/acpi/events to run handlers in response to these events. The acpid daemon is described here:

https://linux.die.net/man/8/acpid

EasyOS has two events, for power-button and lid, that's it, no more. And from feedback testing Easy Excalibur, the lid handling isn't working properly.

So, I have added the full event-handler package from Debian, 'acpi-support', which has a dependency 'acpi-support-base'. See details:

https://packages.debian.org/trixie/acpi-support-base

https://packages.debian.org/trixie/acpi-support

These will be builtin in the next release of EasyOS.
