Module functions for ACLs

Workflow for ACLs in Misago is simple:

First, you get user ACL. Its directory that you can introspect to find out user
permissions, or if you have objects, you can use this acl to make those objects
aware of their ACLs. This gives objects themselves special "acl" attribute with
properties defined by ACL providers within their "add_acl_to_target"
