update firewall module to use sudo ufw status properly
This re-orders the "ufw status" logic to assume it's being run as a regular user, and use "sudo /usr/sbin/ufw status". If the username is root, then instead use simply "ufw status".
This update does NOT take variable elevation commands like pbrun/dzdo/pbsudo into account. I may add that in a future update.

Why was this marked wontfix? The UFW status comes up empty on Ubuntu as a regular user without, do I need to reference an issue?
I tried testing out this PR and it hangs my WTF instance. Not sure what's going on right now but I can try to revisit sometime soon.
@FelicianoTech do you have a NOPASSWD entry in your sudoers for the ufw command? If not, it's hanging for your password
@docsmooth I did not. I would love to figure out a way to notify the user that that's the problem rather than just locking up. I don't want to hold up this PR though so that can happen latter.
Verified this works. Thank you for contributing.
@FelicianoTech that's a great point. I'll think about this, I have some thoughts
