Update a File's Permissions

Updates the permissions that are explicitly applied to a target file version.

Permissions determine the actions that are available to the requesting user for a target file version. Note that there is no "deny" permission. When a user has certain permissions to a file, it is because those permissions are explicitly granted to their user ID, because the user is a member of a group that has those permissions, or because the user has an assigned role that has those permissions.
