Subject: [PATCH] cppbind: check I/O rules when auto-constructing an SGPath
 from a Nasal scalar

- Add static member function SGPath::NasalIORulesChecker as a
  PermissionChecker (this is essentially checkIORules() moved from the
  flightgear repository).

- Use it in the from_nasal_helper() that creates an SGPath instance from
  a Nasal scalar.
