Breaking Change on 2.3.1 - Can't encode Bitwise Permissions about guardian HOT 6 CLOSED

I think that on 2.3.1 and ongoing need to define on config.exs.

base_permissions_list = [
  :read,
  :export_drilldown,
  :export_reports,
  :export_campaigns,
  :export_messages,
  :export_people,
  :export_templates,
  :template,
  :people,
  :campaign,
  :write,
  :delete,
  :dashboard
]

config :my_app, MyApp.Guardian,
  allowed_algos: ["HS512"],
  issuer: "myapp",
  token_ttl: %{
    "reset" => {10, :minutes},
    "magic" => {10, :minutes},
    "access" => {30, :minutes},
    "user" => {2, :hours},
    "myuser" => {2, :hours},
    "company" => {52, :weeks}
  },
  allowed_drift: 2000,
  secret_key: Application.compile_env(:my_app, :guardian_secret_key),
  permissions: %{
    account: base_permissions_list,
    group: base_permissions_list,
    mgmt: base_permissions_list
  }

Do you mind creating an example project showcasing the issue or much better to create a PR?

It works as intended with all permissions in config.exs. My suggestions, since this is a "new behaviour", is to enhance / clarify documentation. The changelog in our opinion it is not clear enough.
We use Guardian for more than 5 years, so our list of permissions grew since and we didn't bother updating back our config.exs.

@pedromvieira do you mind opening a PR about the topic?

@pedromvieira I will encourage you to improve the documentation based on your experience.
