New set of commands for privileges

If you know about privileges, you know you can manipulate them only via the configuration object, like this: 

get config privs
sudo add group licorn-wmi --system
sudo mod config --add-privileges licorn-wmi
sudo add group remote-ssh --system
sudo mod config --add-privileges remotessh
sudo mod config --del-privileges licorn-wmi,remotessh
get config privileges

Now you can handle them kind of "directly", like this: 

get privs
sudo add group licorn-wmi --system
sudo add priv licorn-wmi
sudo add group remote-ssh --system
sudo add priv remotessh
sudo del privs licorn-wmi,remotessh
get privileges

Which is quite simpler, and - I think - more logical or consistent with the rest of the command set. The code lies in changeset 310.
