Kevin Hilman bf12d18457 common/linux/device.py: don't require sudo if already root user 
On generic_linux devices, one might ssh as the root user, in which
case there is no need to use sudo.

In addition, some root filesystems may not have sudo (e.g. minimal
buildroot/busybox).

This patch attempts to detect the root user using 'id -u' and, if it
detects the root user, avoids the use of sudo for running commands as
well.

Workload Automation
+++++++++++++++++++

Workload Automation (WA) is a framework for executing workloads and collecting
measurements on Android and Linux devices. WA includes automation for nearly 50
workloads (mostly Android), some common instrumentation (ftrace, ARM
Streamline, hwmon).  A number of output formats are supported. 

Workload Automation is designed primarily as a developer tool/framework to
facilitate data driven development by providing a method of collecting
measurements from a device in a repeatable way.

Workload Automation is highly extensible. Most of the concrete functionality is
implemented via plug-ins, and  it is easy to write new plug-ins to support new
device types, workloads, instrumentation or output processing. 


Requirements
============

- Python 2.7
- Linux (should work on other Unixes, but untested)
- Latest Android SDK (ANDROID_HOME must be set) for Android devices, or
- SSH for Linux devices


Installation
============

To install::

        python setup.py sdist
        sudo pip install dist/wlauto-*.tar.gz

Please refer to the `installation section <./doc/source/installation.rst>`_ 
in the documentation for more details.


Basic Usage
===========

Please see the `Quickstart <./doc/source/quickstart.rst>`_ section of the
