How can I allow an app to make changes without typing in the password, but using TouchID on the Touch Bar instead?

This is not one of the supported features of Touch ID on macOS - at least not yet.
With Touch ID on your MBP, you can:
- unlock your Mac
- make purchases using your Apple ID (i.e. from the App Store and iTunes)
- use Apple Pay
Undoubtedly as time goes by, more functionality will be added to Touch ID on macOS - but the ability to use it to allow apps to make changes to macOS isn't available yet.
