nice mod to support connecting root also

now the root user can run the connect feisty meow process on its own startup file, by providing the --root flag to the connect_feisty_meow script.  this is important, since it is never recommended to load a big scripting environment for root by default.  too much depends on root's commands being exactly what they seem, rather than having been aliased.  anyway, the root user can run fredme or feistyme to load up the script environment.
