Add option to run sudo -v in a loop to prevent repeated password entries (MR 1997)

Browse source 
Many of pmbootstrap's actions require root rights. When after requesting
sudo access pmbootstrap takes longer than the sudo timeout interval to finish
execution, the password will have to be entered again on the next sudo
action.

This change adds an opt-in feature to run sudo -v in a background loop
in order to prevent having to enter the password more than once for a single
pmbootstrap run. The loop runs as a daemon timer which automatically gets
canceled when pmbootstrap exits.

Closes: #1677
