KDE connect's sample command for suspending doesn't work because the command is wrong.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go on a phone with kde-connect paired with a computer that runs on archlinux ( mayber other distros as well )
2. Select "execute a command". Click pen to open a menu on a computer. on the computer click Sample Commands + and select suspend.
3. click suspend on the phone.

OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing happens.

EXPECTED RESULT
The computer goes to sleep/suspends.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux: 6.3.8-arch1-1 (64-bit)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.107.0
Qt Version: 5.15.10

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
replacing `suspend` by `systemctl suspend` works perfectly.
trying to write down suspend in konsole gives this:
user@device ~> suspend
Suspending 5038: run kill -CONT 5038 from another terminal to resume

Oh, and it is not possible to select Linux/Plasma app in Component when filing a bug report for kdeconnect

I was able to confirm this item using my device a Pixel 5 and Fedora Rawhide where the "suspend" value does not perform an action but "systemctl suspend" does work correctly when set inside the KDE Connect desktop app.  I tested the "suspend" command in Konsole and while it starts to perform a task it does ultimately hang.  This might be due to being on a release candidate kernel.  No issue using systemctl suspend however.
