Linux/FreeBSD: Fix privilege escalation prompts being ignored (#1100)
Currently if you fail the privilege escalation prompt, the second
one and consecutively every second will be ignored. This is because
if we do not --use-dummy-sudo-password and are on Linux/FreeBSD,
we will be prompted for password twice for one evaluation in the
while(!ElevatedServiceAvailable) loop.
For the fix, we make sure that we run the prompt only once for each
case.
