Run sudo in WSL without needing a Password

This one-liner enables running elevated commands with sudo on Ubuntu on WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux).

echo "`whoami` ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL" | sudo tee /etc/sudoers.d/`whoami` && sudo chmod 0440 /etc/sudoers.d/`whoami`

It works of course also in other places, but should be strictly used for development purposes.
