Add option to run a Tool with elevated privileges
See original GitHub issueDescription
I might want to run a CLI tool as administrator. An example for that is to install or use Chocolatey.
This can be easily achieved if we add a flag in the Tool delegate and then if set to true to add a Verb in the ProcessStartInfo to start the process with elevation.
If you like the idea, I will go on and prepare a PR for adding it.
Alternatives
Not sure if there is an alternative at the moment. Maybe it is, but I can’t figure it out.
