Add policy to Polkit

http://www.webupd8.org/2015/03/how-to-run-gedit-and-nautilus-as-root.html

Add the file https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hotice/webupd8/master/org.gnome.nautilus.policy
to /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/

So the user can start a nautilus session with superuser privileges to edit files outside the home directory using 'pkexec nautilus'.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue you are reporting is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the developers of the software by following the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME. If you have done so, please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status. Thanks in advance.

Filed upstream and rejected since they only support admin:// (e.g. `nautilus admin:///home/user/Documents` or just `nautilus admin://`) as `pkexec nautilus` doesn't work on Wayland https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/issues/429

Please could a Bug Control member mark this Won't Fix?
