Bug Description

Reproduce:
Enable hotspot

What happens:
Device stays awake even if no clients are connected.

What should happen:
Device should go to sleep.

Furthermore, it should wake up if a client connects.

Affecting UX because the user needs to be informed (via indicator/system settings) how many clients are connected.

proposal: the hotspot function should show the number of connected devices (and the names, if possible)
