Hello,
Please, forgive my bad English here.
I would like to have the opportunity of choosing to hibernate my system running a debian/buster kde-plasma environment for maybe a year already, but I can't find a way to make the Kickoff>Leave menu to show any choice other than system> quit or restart (apart from the usual session options).
$ systemctl hibernate works nevertheless as expected in a konsole terminal.
So, I googled of course to find a cause and a cure to this odd behavior.
What I tried was this :
Create a file : /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/enable-hibernate.pkla
With this content :
[Re-enable hibernate by default in upower]
Identity=unix-user:*
Action=org.freedesktop.upower.hibernate
ResultActive=yes
[Re-enable hibernate by default in logind]
Identity=unix-user:*
Action=org.freedesktop.login1.hibernate
ResultActive=yes
... to no avail ...
Does this ring any bell to anybody of you ?
Thanks in advance to any piece of advice.

Does the dialog at systemsettings> power appear and work?
In systemsettings> startup and shutdown> desktop session, is "offer
shutdown options" ticked?
I use Application Dashboard instead of Kickoff, you can drag the icons
from the "Power / Session" menu to the favorites area on the left.
/etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d is empty, not sure why tha would
need tweaking, can you provide a link?
I did tweak this:
/etc/dbus-1/system.d/org.freedesktop.UPower.conf
because "org.freedesktop.UPower.KbdBacklight" was preventing powerdevil
from starting correctly.
Stick with it, and good luck!

Installing this missing packet and rebooting the machine did it.
No further tweaking needed.
I owe you a beer ... virtual as it may be ...
Have a nice new year's eve.
