acpid's script "lid.sh" should *source* lid.sh.pre and lid.sh.post

[Riccardo Murri]

As of acpid 1:2.0.10-1ubuntu2.3, the support script "/etc/acpi/lid.sh" allows users to define hooks "/etc/acpi/local/lid.sh.pre" and "lid.sh.post".

However, these hooks are executed as shell commands, instead of being sourced by the current shell. Thus, the environment and the ACPI functions is lost in the hook scripts, and one must set it up again.

Sourcing the hook scripts makes them more useful.

Trivial patch attached.
