hook_perm()
Define user permissions.
This hook can supply permissions that the module defines, so that they can be selected on the user permissions page and used to restrict access to actions the module performs.
The permissions in the array must not be wrapped with the function t(), since this could lead to privilege escalation if someone "translated" one permission string into a higher privelege string. The string extractor takes care of extracting permission names defined in the perm hook for translation.
Permissions are checked using user_access().
For a detailed usage example, see page_example.module.
Return value
An array of permissions strings.
