To be figured out much later.

Still need to have some notion of “mine” vs “global”, though.

Got something going, here.

Permissions are just arbitrary strings. So far I’m prefixing them with plugin names and making them actions, e.g. forum:create-post.
Eventually, plugins will report their own canonical lists of permissions and descriptions thereof. This will be in code, not in the db, for the sake of keeping db upgrades simple.
Permissions are assigned to roles. Users can have zero or more roles.
Permissions assigned to NULL are available to all users.
I’d kinda like to have un-permissions, e.g. for banning users.
