accounts-service: Add polkit .rules file to stop prompting admins

Browse source 
When logged in as an administrator, and editing other user accounts in
gnome-control-center, polkit keeps popping up authentication dialogues
to read or change other users’ parental controls data. That shouldn’t be
necessary since we’re an admin user, and it’s not a critical enough
action to need to prompt the admin to re-authenticate to make sure they
really want to make such changes.

Add a .rules file to squash the polkit prompts for reading other users’
parental controls. Keep the default policy of auth_admin_keep for
changing our/others’ parental controls, since that should be handled by
the ‘Unlock’ button in g-c-c.
