Add pkexec policy (Bug #11122)
This adds a pkexec policy file to Thunar. This way if the user
of a desktop system wants to use thunar to modify files as root
and has the proper credentials they can.
pkexec comes from polkit which does about the same thing as
sudo/gksu except also supports authentication methods like
fingerprint or smart card readers.
