If Chopsticks is to be usable for configuration management, it needs to be capable of acquiring root permissions.

Add a sudo option to the SSH tunnel.
Add sudo as a connection type, to allow running as root on the current host. This is more tricky, as it may require a pty for some sudo configurations.
