add permissions to control user of rest and xmlrpc API interfaces. issue2551058: Add new permissions: 'Rest Access' and 'Xmlrpc Access' to allow per-user access control to rest and xmlrpc interfaces using roles. Updated all schemas to add these new perms to all authenticated roles. Error conditions in handle_xmlrpc were not working right in manual testing. I tried to make it a little better, but I don't actually understand how the fault xmlrpc object is supposed to be used. So I may have messed something up. I'll try to ping the people who wrote the xmlrpc code to have them review.

PostgreSQL/psycopg Backend
==========================

This are notes about PostqreSQL backend based on the psycopg adapter for
Roundup issue tracker.

Prerequisites
=============

To use PostgreSQL as backend for storing roundup data, you should
additionally install:

1. PostgreSQL 8.x or higher - https://www.postgresql.org/

2. The psycopg python interface to PostgreSQL:

     http://initd.org/psycopg/


Running the PostgreSQL unit tests
=================================

The user that you're running the tests as will need to be able to access
the postgresql database on the local machine and create and drop
databases. See the config values in 'test/db_test_base.py' 
about which database connection, name and user will be used.
