Authorisation fixes

I noticed that the install and remove scripts were still using zenity - my humble apologies for this oversight... now Yad'ised.

In this version - all installation and remove authorisation including package installation from within iCAPS has been overhauled. This version will prompt if kdesudo or gksu is not installed; kdesudo or gksu which contains gksudo must first be installed via the distribution package manager.

If you don't want to do any of this, install all the package requirements prior to running iCAPS and ignore the sudo advice when iCAPS is launched from the iCAPS source folder.

I found it easier to use one of the sudo interfaces than pkexec. That is, unless the user has special requirements and is happy to set up all the bits and bobs for themselves. I understand this will be fixed in the near future and pkexec should be much easier to use.

EDIT: project log file can now be found in the project directory - a bit easier than looking for .files
