[opencms-dev] OpenCms 7.5.1+: more granular permission system

[Michael Moossen]

Hi Kai, Achim!

already the permissions to create a resource can be configured 
separately in the explorer type configuration of the resource type.

for instance, here for jsp files in the opencms-workplace.jsp:
----
<explorertype name="jsp" key="fileicon.jsp" icon="jsp.gif">
    <newresource uri="newresource.jsp?newresourcetype=jsp" order="50" 
autosetnavigation="false" autosettitle="false" info="desc.jsp" />
     <accesscontrol>
        <accessentry principal="DEFAULT" permissions="+r+v"/>
        <accessentry principal="ROLE.DEVELOPER" permissions="+r+v+w+c"/>
        <accessentry principal="GROUP.Guests" permissions="-r-v-w-c"/>
     </accesscontrol>
----

here +c means can create new jsp files.
and -c means the principal is not allowed to create new jsp files.
