Currently on Fedora, mach bootstrap will prompt for the sudo password to install the packages and groups that have already been installed. To help get mach bootstrap to a point where it can be run without prompting for user input we should avoid doing this.

Depends on: 1744279

Ooh, I like these two bugs - as a Fedora user I also grimace every time I sudo for a no-op during bootstrap :)

Priority: -- → P3

Without this change, on systems that use dnf (such as Fedora),
mach bootstrap will prompt for the sudo password to install packages and
groups that have already been installed. Making this change will help get
mach bootstrap to a point where it can be run without prompting for user
input when we can avoid doing that.

Depends on D132815
