      New User class methods: can_access_sub() and can_access_dir() · 24226f35
      Rob Swindell authored
      Much easier and more accurate way to determine (via JS) if a specific user
      has a particular kind of access to a message sub-board or a file directory.
      This is accurate because it uses the 'userdat' functions under the hood, which
      check much more than just a single access requirement string against the user.
      
      Usage:
      bool can_access_sub(string sub_code or number sub_num
       [,'read', 'post', or 'operator'])
      bool can_access_dir(string dir_code or number dir_num
       [,'download', 'upload', or 'operator'])
      
      If no access string (second argument) is specified, then just generic "access"
      (e.g. for listing areas) is checked.
      
      The existing msg_area.sub[].can_access, can_read, can_post (and similar for
      file_area.dir[]) are still useful, but only for the current 'user'. If you
      want to check a different user's access to a sub-board or file directory, you
      really need to use these new User class methods.
