Consider escalating priviledge to `sudo` automatically when copying `.so` file or editing ini file

The problem

If you are outside docker and/or don't have permissions to write into PHP's config directory.

• cargo php install will fail if normal user don't have permissions to copy file or write to .ini file.
• sudo cargo php install is likely to fail with cargo not found error since cargo is typically installed in user's ~/.cargo/bin directory.
• sudo ~/.cargo/bin/cargo php install is likely to rebuild and change the owner to root of many intermediate files to make normal cargo b to fail.

Solution: before copying file or editing INI file, check if it requires admin privilege and use sudo2 or elevate crate to escalate privilege.

Would you accept a MR if this make sense?

I really like that idea. I would also like to add a root check and just fail unless something like --bypass-root-check is passed.

Getting root check on Windows may be tricky. I am not even sure how PHP installation works on Windows.
