Here it is:
$ pkaction|\grep -E 'hiber|susp'
org.freedesktop.consolekit.system.hibernate
org.freedesktop.consolekit.system.hibernate-multiple-users
org.freedesktop.consolekit.system.suspend
org.freedesktop.consolekit.system.suspend-multiple-users
$
And using "--verbose" I get:
$ pkaction --action-id org.freedesktop.consolekit.system.hibernate --verbose
org.freedesktop.consolekit.system.hibernate:
description: Hibernate the system
message: System policy prevents hibernating the system
vendor:
vendor_url:
icon:
implicit any: no
implicit inactive: no
implicit active: yes
$ pkaction --action-id org.freedesktop.consolekit.system.suspend --verbose
org.freedesktop.consolekit.system.suspend:
description: Suspend the system
message: System policy prevents suspending the system
vendor:
vendor_url:
icon:
implicit any: no
implicit inactive: no
implicit active: yes
$
In "/etc/polkit-1/rules.d/" are only three rules files, the first and
last one being copied by me from the internet somewhere, the second one
being original:
# cd /etc/polkit-1/rules.d
# for f in *; do echo ---- $f; cat $f; done
---- 10-admin.rules
polkit.addAdminRule(function(action, subject) {
return ["unix-group:wheel"];
});
---- 50-default.rules
/* -*- mode: js; js-indent-level: 4; indent-tabs-mode: nil -*- */
// DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE, it will be overwritten on update
//
// Default rules for polkit
//
// See the polkit(8) man page for more information
// about configuring polkit.
polkit.addAdminRule(function(action, subject) {
return ["unix-user:0"];
});
---- 50-org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.rules
polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
if (action.id.indexOf("org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.") == 0 &&
subject.isInGroup("plugdev")) {
return polkit.Result.YES;
}
});

These are the polkit USE flags here:
$ eix -l sys-auth/polkit|grep Installed
Installed versions: 0.115-r4(15:10:56 22/10/19)(consolekit gtk
introspection nls pam -elogind -examples -jit -kde -selinux -systemd -test)
$
The only differences I see are that you are using "elogind" rather than
"consolekit", and that I'm using "gtk" while you are using "kde".
If someone could point me to any missing policy rules, I would be glad
to add them.
Sincerely,
Rainer
