Description

the following methods on the access control manager interface require
interaction with the permission evaluation:

#hasPrivileges(String, Privilege[])
#getPrivileges(String)
#hasPrivileges(String, Set<Principal>, Privilege[])
#getPrivileges(String, Set<Principal>)

right now those methods are not supported if there was no permission provider
passed to the acmgr constructor, which obviously is far from being optimal.

in general i see the need for closer interaction between oak-api and the
permission evaluation... (see also the related TODO with Root#getCommitSubject)
