Description
Non-interactive polkit authentication agent that answers PAM prompts from a file descriptor
Long description
Registers a per-process polkit authentication agent for a wrapped command and answers the PAM conversation from a file descriptor instead of /dev/tty, giving run0 / systemd-run the same "password on stdin" ergonomics as `sudo --stdin`. Used by `nixos-rebuild --elevate=run0 --ask-elevate-password` to authenticate on a target host over SSH without allocating a TTY.
