Hello!

I am using xfce4-taskmanager 1.2.2-1 on Debian Buster.

When I try, for example, to set priority to "Very High" in a task then I get an
error "It is likely you don't have the required privileges". It should normally
ask for my password using xfce4 polkit like `gnome-system-monitor` does.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open xfce4-taskmanager
2. Try to do an action which requires elevated privileges like setting
priority, killing root task, etc...
3. See that it throws an error instead of asking your password

Please find the attached screenshot of the error dialog.
