wireproto: declare permissions requirements in @wireprotocommand (API)

With the security patches from 4.5.2 merged into default, we now
have a per-command attribute defining what permissions are needed
to run that command. We now have a richer @wireprotocommand that
can be extended to record additional command metadata. So we
port the permissions mechanism to be based on @wireprotocommand.

.. api::

   hgweb_mod.perms and wireproto.permissions have been removed. Wire
   protocol commands should declare their required permissions in the
   @wireprotocommand decorator.
