Add support for local user TCC.db without requiring sudo privileges

[Copilot]

Add support for local user TCC.db without requiring sudo

Completed:

• Analyze current code and understand the issue
• Modify sudo_required() function to check if accessing local vs global TCC.db
• Update error messages to distinguish between global and local database access
• Add a new global variable to track whether we're using local or global database
• Update documentation in README.md to explain the difference between global and local TCC.db
• Test the changes to ensure proper behavior
• Add .gitignore file to prevent committing build artifacts
• Bump version to 1.5.1

Changes Made:

Code Changes (tccutil.py):

1. Added using_local_db global variable to track when accessing user-specific database
2. Modified sudo_required() function to skip sudo check when using_local_db is True
3. Updated error messages to be more informative about global vs local database requirements
4. Fixed path construction for local user database (was incorrectly prepending global path to user home)
5. Bumped version from 1.5.0 to 1.5.1

Documentation Changes (README.md):

1. Added "Understanding Global vs Local TCC Databases" section explaining:
   • Global TCC.db at /Library/Application Support/com.apple.TCC/TCC.db (requires sudo)
   • Local TCC.db at ~/Library/Application Support/com.apple.TCC/TCC.db (no sudo needed)
2. Updated Usage section to clarify privilege requirements
3. Reorganized Examples section with clear subsections for global vs local database usage
4. Added examples showing how to use local database without sudo

Project Changes:

1. Added .gitignore file to exclude Python build artifacts

Key Improvements:

• Users can now modify their own local TCC database without sudo privileges
• Clear error messages guide users to use --user flag for local database access
• Documentation clearly explains the difference between the two databases

<issue_title>Uesr mod TCC.db</issue_title>
<issue_description>我发现使用用户目录下也存在TCC.db文件，可以通过修改这个文件也能够实现类似当前项目的效果。
我正在这么做，但是用户目录下和系统目录下这两个TCC.db文件有什么差别？
/Users/${user}/Library/Application Support/com.apple.TCC/TCC.db"
通过修改上述文件也可以对隐私与权限设置产生影响</issue_description>

<agent_instructions>Distinguish a difference between the global TCC.db and the local one found in /Users/${user}/Library/Application Support/com.apple.TCC/TCC.db and add support for both in the tccutil.py file. Take into consideration that the global requires sudo permissions and the local one does not. Prompt and error accordingly.</agent_instructions>
