Can’t use --help as non-root user

[luziferius]

As far as I can see, the first thing main() does is to check if it runs as root, even before the argument parser is built:

emby-updater/embyupdater/__init__.py

Lines 177 to 184 in 9c3aaa7

	def main():
	if os.geteuid() != 0:
	print('''You need to have root privileges to run this script.
	Please try again, this time using 'sudo'.
	Exiting.''', file=sys.stderr)
	sys.exit(1)
	parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(

I think this is a bit restrictive. If you move the check below

emby-updater/embyupdater/__init__.py

Line 200 in 9c3aaa7

args = parser.parse_args()

both --help and --version can be used as non-root, while the system-altering functions are still protected.

This is not a bad idea...not a major issue mind you, but might be cleaner for some folks. The other thing I thought of was if you do run it as non-root, you could say so (like it does) but then also display the help info as if --help was specified. Just an idea.

Great tool here, it works perfectly for me.

Sorry @luziferius, I've totally overlooked your issue -.-
