cmd/systray: set ipn.NotifyNoPrivateKeys, permit non-operator use

Otherwise you get "Access denied: watch IPN bus access denied, must
set ipn.NotifyNoPrivateKeys when not running as admin/root or
operator".

This lets a non-operator at least start the app and see the status, even
if they can't change everything. (the web UI is unaffected by operator)

A future change can add a LocalAPI call to check permissions and guide
people through adding a user as an operator (perhaps the web client
can do that?)

Updates #1708
