Google Benchmark's Travis build currently requires "sudo" to install newer
versions of CMake and similar. See this for more details:

https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/workers/container-based-infrastructure/

Since Google Benchmark was put into Travis before 2015-01-01, it gets the
standard infrastructure implicitly, so sudo works. But anyone who forks this
repository and tries to add Travis.CI (so they can see if the build works
before creating a PR) gets broken builds before this change.
