When using 'ptxdist bash' some tools installed by ptxdist may have to be used as root. some sudo installations do not pass through the PATH environment variable so that 'sudo <somecommand-in-sysroot-host>' results in command not found error messages. This patch adds a ptxsudo alias that can be used in such situations. The name has been chosen rather than regular 'sudo' since the said feature is a security feature protecting against path spoofing which we do not want to disable silently.
