Feature request to allow for a toggle to remove "Sleep and screen Locking after
inactivity" UI section in power and battery taskbar and widget interface


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open "Power management" or "Power and Battery" interface from task bar or
add "Power and Battery" widget to desktop
2. Observe the UI

OBSERVED RESULT
You will notice this UI section at the bottom that always reports "Sleep and
Screen Locking after inactivity", while this is quite useful on a laptop, its
completely redundant and at times annoying due to the space it takes on a
Desktop, where I do not want the computer to sleep at all and I have manually
set it not to sleep. 


EXPECTED RESULT
This is a feature request to have a setting to toggle this interface ON/OFF
(OFF by default), such that users on desktop or devices where sleep is not
needed, should not have to see this redundant info, it also takes up
considerable screen space in the widget

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Arch Linux x86_64
KDE Plasma Version:  6.3.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.12.0
Qt Version: 6.9.0
Kernel Version: 6.14.2-arch1-1 (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
There is some info on power profiles as well that is redundant and taking space
in the interface by the guys at KDE forums think its necessary to always show
it, I half agree, but it would be nice to know how to at least hack if off
