[SIGNED-OFF] Bug 14868: Give users possibility to request their own object

If the user has no required permissions, but attempts to access his own object,
allow this request in case "x-koha-permission" has defined "allow-owner": "1".

As an example, the following resource can be accessed if user has
borrowers-flag
or if he is making the request to his own borrowernumber (in path or body):

"/patrons/{borrowernumber}": {
  ..
  "x-koha-permission": {
    "allow-owner": "1",
    "permissions": {
      "borrowers": "1"
    }
  }
}

We have been using the Swagger2.0-driven REST API on Mojolicious for 1 year now
in production and I am certain we have a pretty good idea on how to work with
the limitations of Swagger2.0
We participated in the development of the Mojolicious::Plugin::Swagger and know
it well. We have made an extension to the plugin to provide full CORS support
and have been building all our in-house features on the new REST API.
