I'm not sure this is something that we actually want to do anymore.
Swap for swap sake has become nearly useless over the last decade or
two, and out of the box Ubuntu doesn't even have hibernation enabled
anymore.  A lot of recent systems have a ton of ram and it's a shame to
dedicate that much just on the off chance someone might try to
hibernate.  Also you can still hibernate as long as you aren't using all
of your physical ram since only the used pages are saved.  IIRC, the
swsusp2 package also allows for automatically discarding some or all of
cache memory and then compressing what is left to really keep the
hibernation image size small.
