I've added "-H" to the sudo options. "-s" is already there. That shall
provide backwards compatibility on all systems Tramp is running. See the
appended patch.

"sudo -i" might be preferrable for systems which support it, but it
would be additional effort for testing this option. This contradicts
performance consideratons.
