void isAllowedTo (mixed $permissions[, mixed $boards])

Expected type: Mixed
Description: A single permission or an array of permissions

Allowed types for $permissions
Allowed values	Description
String	A single permission
Array	An array of permissions

Expected type: Mixed
Description: If specified, permissions will be checked for the specified board(s) instead of the current one

Allowed types for $boards
Allowed values	Description
Integer	The ID of a specific board
Array	An array of integers corresponding to the IDs of the boards to check permissions on

If the user doesn't have the permission, and they're a guest, is_not_guest is called to allow them to login first (since they might be able to do it if they're logged in).
If they are logged in and can't do it, dies with a fatal_lang_error using the appropriate "cannot_permissionname" message
If there are any "heavy" permissions involved, and the user doesn't have any of the regular permissions but does have at least one "heavy" permission, validateSession() is called to validate their session
