Allow non-sudo escalations and add option for checking existing commands before running
Registered by
Ryan Walker
For linux discoveries, sudo is not always enabled. In these cases, we should allow the user to specify a root password and escalate privileges to root using the provided password and 'su'.
Also include a keyword argument on remote_execute, `allow_many`, which can be set to False,
and will ensure that the command to be issued is not already running before executing.
