New issue by wastemans on void-packages repository

https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/40739

Description:
### Is this a new report?

Yes

### System Info

Void 6.0.9_1 x86_64 GenuineIntel notuptodate rFFFFFFF

### Package(s) Affected

tlp-1.5.0_1

### Does a report exist for this bug with the project's home (upstream) and/or another distro?

Yes, [here](https://github.com/linrunner/TLP/issues/656).

### Expected behaviour

Hibernation should work on battery with an optimus intel/nvidia setup.

### Actual behaviour

Hibernation does not work unless tlp is set to false, or the directory:
`/var/lib/tlp`
is created.

### Steps to reproduce

Difficult to define, but for me, all I need to do to make is fail:

- Ensure the above directory does not exist
- sudo ZZZ

The system never actually halts, and needs to be cold power cycled.

Comment:
Background information:

1. The Makefile used by the package build actually creates **/var/lib/tlp** https://github.com/linrunner/TLP/blob/1.5.0/Makefile#L178 . It is unclear to me why it is not included in Void package.
2. TLP needs to directory to store a state file. If the directory is not there, parts of TLP will not work.
3. In the underlying TLP issue, at the same time a bug in dash due to the missing directory even causes the script processing to abort
