proposed patch

I configured battmond to suspend (option -z) after reaching a threshold of 5%
(-H 5). In some cases, e.g. when running the system under high load and/or if
the battery becomes old, it is not unusual that the battery level drops
suddenly from more than 5 percent to zero percent. In this case the system will
shut off unexpectedly instead of going to sleep. This is because battmond
checks for remaining capacity greater than zero and not greater than or equal
to zero (Line 192 in battmond.c).

Patchfile attached.
