revise documentation about set-id

perlsec's section on set-id scripts was written confusingly, with several
half-formed references to the long-ago-deleted suidperl, and with temporal
references that are well out of date.  Revise that section, and slightly
expand the perldiag entry for the message about detecting a set-id script.
Add another section to perlsec about sudo.  Fixes [perl #74142].
