ApiController#permissions

External apps that use the api are able to query which permissions
they have. This currently returns a list of permissions granted to the current user:
* if authenticated via OAuth, this list will contain all permissions granted by the user to the access_token.
* if authenticated via basic auth all permissions are granted, so the list will contain all permissions.
* unauthenticated users have no permissions, so the list will be empty.
