Class CollectionPermissions

CollectionPermissions defines the permissions for the collection (i.e., what the manager can and cannot do).

There are five types of permissions for a collection: ActionPermission, TimedUpdatePermission, TimedUpdateWithTokenIdsPermission, TokenIdsActionPermission, and CollectionApprovalPermission.

The permission type allows fine-grained access control for each action.

• ActionPermission: defines when the manager can perform an action.
• TimedUpdatePermission: defines when the manager can update a timeline-based field and what times of the timeline can be updated.
• TimedUpdateWithTokenIdsPermission: defines when the manager can update a timeline-based field for specific tokens and what times of the timeline can be updated.
• TokenIdsActionPermission: defines when the manager can perform an action for specific tokens
• CollectionApprovalPermission: defines when the manager can update the transferability of the collection and what transfers can be updated vs. locked.

Note there are a few different times here which could get confusing:

• timelineTimes: the times when a timeline-based field is a specific value
• permanentlyPermitted/ForbiddenTimes - the times that a permission can be performed
• transferTimes - the times that a transfer occurs
• ownershipTimes - the times when a token is owned by a user

The permitted/permanentlyForbiddenTimes are used to determine when a permission can be executed. Once a time is set to be permitted or forbidden, it is PERMANENT and cannot be changed. If a time is not set to be permitted or forbidden, it is considered NEUTRAL and can be updated but is ALLOWED by default.

IMPORTANT: We take first-match only for the permissions. This means that if you forbid time T in array index 0 and permit time T in index 1, we will only check the first permission (forbid time T) and not the second permission (permit time T).
