Wake Lock API based on Promises

Device

Adds an update of the Wake Lock API that introduce promises and wake lock types. The Wake Lock API brought a standard, secure, and safe way to prevent some device features such as the screen or CPU cycles from going into power saving state. This update addresses some of the shortcomings of the older api which was limited to screen Wake Lock and didn’t address certain security and privacy issues.
