feat(core): introduce lock_manager

it eats some functions from apps.base, and introduces an asynchronous
notification mechanism for suspending via `notify_suspend()`

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a code reorganization: it moves device locking, unlocking, homescreen selection, and suspend-related logic out of apps/base.py into a new module called apps/common/lock_manager.py. It also changes how the power button triggers suspend, using a new asynchronous notification mechanism (notify_suspend) instead of immediately locking the device. There is no direct evidence in the diff that this fixes a security vulnerability; it appears to be a feature/refactoring change.

Recommended action

Treat this as a normal feature/refactoring commit rather than an urgent security patch. Reviewers should verify that the new asynchronous suspend path preserves the existing security invariant that the device locks before suspend, and that the removal of the immediate Shutdown() in the power button handler does not create a window where sensitive UI remains interactive after suspend is requested. The TODO comments indicate the implementation may still be evolving, so additional commits should be monitored.
