#11400: Create sudo configuration files for items installed in /opt (KDE, Java,
Xorg, etc.)

-------------------------+-----------------------
The sudo environment now has an /etc/sudoers.d directory. This should be
populated instead of automating edits of /etc/sudoers. Additionally,
environment variables that should be preserved for a program to run as the
superuser, should be updated using the same mechanism.
Some examples:
{{{
## Sudo
cat > /etc/sudoers.d/sudo << "EOF"
Defaults secure_path="/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin"
%wheel ALL=(ALL) ALL
EOF
# QT
cat > /etc/suoders.d/qt << "EOF"
Defaults evn_keep += QT5DIR
EOF
# IF KDE is installed in /opt
cat >> /etc/sudoers.d/qt << "EOF"
Defaults env_keep += QT_PLUGIN_PATH
Defualts env_keep += QML2_IMPORT_PATH
EOF
# JAVA
cat > /etc/sudoers.d/java << "EOF"
Defaults env_keep += JAVA_HOME
Defaults evn_keep += CLASSPATH
EOF
}}}
