We already have gksu support for using kill and renice on other users' processes, but it would be also nice to add pkexec support. It's already added in gnome-system-monitor, we just need to backport it.

          add pkexec support

closes #85

try pkexec before trying gksu for killing other users' processes
or renicing a process. actual kill and renice commands are launched
via helper tool (see discussion at https://bugzilla.gnome.org/491462).

code is ported from gnome-system-monitor with some changes (e.g. helper
tool code is in tools/ dir instead of scripts/ - it's not a script).
