The mdevscan endpoint requires Sys.Audit or Sys.Modify on '/'. This
blocks non-admin users from listing mediated device types for a PCI
mapping, even when they hold Mapping.Use on that mapping.
Check the permission in the API handler based on the parameter type: For
a raw PCI ID, require Sys.Audit or Sys.Modify on '/'. For a mapping,
require Sys.Audit or Sys.Modify on '/', or fall back to requiring
Mapping.Use, Mapping.Modify or Mapping.Audit on the specific mapping
path.
Set the endpoint permission to 'user => all' so the handler performs the
type-dependent check. This keeps raw PCI IDs, which are not valid ACL
paths, out of the declarative ACL evaluation.
Reduce indentation by removing redundant else statement. (return
provides implicit branching)

Changes v1->v2
--------------
* Allow all users in the declarative API permissions.
* Implement ACL check in API handler by calling
check_any and raise_perm_exc.
* Remove else statement in API handler, since return statement
provides implicit branching
* update commit message
Side Note
---------
Since this pattern of manual permission checks appear quite frequently,
it might be of interest to provide generic way to deal with such cases
inside of the permissions block (Similar to overriding the
hasPermission method in Java Spring Boot)
For example like this:
permissions => {
user => 'all',
custom => my_perm_sub(),
},
my_perm_sub would simply return a boolean. This would be an optional
extension, without requiring major changes in ACL Logic.
Let me know if this is something you would consider worthwhile.
