Remove support for LDAP "Sudoers" feature

Description

HPCC supports adding users to an LDAP "Sudoers" group, and ws_access provides an interface to submit commands to be executed on an HPCC node if the submitter is part of the Sudoers group. I am not aware that this feature is used, and am concerned about the risks that it introduces. I would like to remove the SUDOERS support if nobody needs it.

Conclusion

None

Sent email to Larry Deters so he can query his customers about its usage. Said he will have an answer in a couple days

Yanrui emailed me "It was probably for experimental purposes, you can probably remove it if you don’t see any use."
