Description

following OAK-9494 i would suggest to add the following addition methods to Jackrabbit API that allows to deal with privileges in a more efficient way:

• JackrabbitAccessControlManager.privilegeCollectionFromNames(String... privilegeNames) -> in addition to AccessControlManager.privilegeFromName(String)
• JackrabbitAccessControlEntry.getPrivilegeCollection() -> in addition to {{AccessControlEntry.getPrivileges()
