Re: [w3c/permissions] Consider removing Permissions.revoke(). (#46)

I'm not convinced by the arguments put forward so far either. Clear Site Data serves a clear need and does not in fact remove any stored permissions. It's a way to help sites that have been locally compromised to regain control over that local copy.

The "logging out" scenario only makes sense if "logging in" would enable the permission again. I.e., if the user agent managed authentication. Even if we ever reach that point, it would be the user agent managing it, not the site, and thus also not necessitate `revoke()`.
