Dynamic config constants (Global to auto fill sudo password for every pyinfra call.)

See original GitHub issue

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I am frustrated when I have to explicitly pass use_sudo_password= with every pyinfra call for scripts I do not want to run as root.

Describe the solution you’d like Add another global to do this for me or allow USE_SUDO_PASSWORD to be set to the password for the current session which would emulate passing use_sudo_password= for all pyinfra calls.

Thanks.
