Summary0000048: [API] Named Permissions Bitfield
DescriptionThe next step is to determine how much of this code needs to be changed for modders and hackers to make good use of it in the future, and how much of it has to remain static for the sake of backward compatibility.

My vague plan so far:

* Do not change any of the postperm integers because they are stored in the database.

* Enumerate the postperm bit fields in header.php so that the status/perm associations are global.

* Change the two oddball permissions array indexes because they are not stored in the database and they are likely to conflict with any future expansion of the postperm column.

* Provide a function that conveniently explode()s the postperm field so that modders don't have to re-invent the wheel and aren't limited to the bool values returned by checkForumPermissions().
