Minikube: Do not auto-select Hyper-V driver if session has no privilege

[tstromberg]

We need to copy the logic from this check into the hyper-v driver health check, so that Hyper-V isn't accidentally selected when the user does not actually have the privilege to use it:

X Exiting due to PR_HYPERV_AS_ADMIN: Failed to start host: creating host: create: precreate: Hyper-v commands have to be run as an Administrator
* Suggestion: Right-click the PowerShell icon and select Run as Administrator to open PowerShell in elevated mode.

I suggest an error message like: "Hyper-V requires elevated privileges: Right-click the PowerShell icon and select Run as Administrator to use minikube with the Hyper-V driver`
