Subject: [PATCH] Restart script re-execs itself with sudo when not run as root

The script restarts system services via systemctl, which requires root.
Previously it would only fail per-command when run by an unprivileged
user. Add an EUID guard at the top that re-execs the script through
sudo, preserving the original path and arguments.
