    [BZ 786106] Wrap calls to obtain managers in privileged blocks so that 3rd
    callers can safely obtain them.
    
    The StandardBindings put all the managers into the script context before
    the script engine is initialized with the security measures which makes
    the managers available inside the scripts. Java code that gets injected as
    other params into the scripts (like the "ProxyFactory" (of class
    ResourceClientFactory) would suffer from access control exceptions when
    it tried to obtain some manager while being called from the script because
    it would try to call the methods from the LocalClient to obtain the remote
    interfaces directly, without a wrapping in a privileged block). Obtaining
    the remote interfaces is a safe operation wrt the scripts and so can be
    wrapped in privileged block so that any caller of the LocalClient can
    have access to the regardless of the access control restrictions in place.
