Added Get-PnPListItemPermissions cmdlet to retrieve list item permissions

[KoenZomers]

When I run this, I get an output such as:

representing these permissions:

Can we not make this a little more useful? The PrincipalId by itself says nothing. We would have to use Get-PnPGroup or Get-PnPUser to find out what's behind the principal. And we don't know in advance which of these two to use.

@KoenZomers - should be more useful now.

@gautamdsheth I don't believe the permissions property is very useful this way. It was better how it was initially. The PrincipalName property is more useful already. I wonder though if we can make it even better by having a property or some kind of indicator making it clear that its a SharePoint Group or a user? One could check if it starts with i:0#.f, but that feels a bit flaky. Would there be an easy better way you think?

[gautamdsheth]

You are right, have fixed it now :)

[KoenZomers]

Much better! Last nag from my side, do you think it would be possible to also add a flag if the permission is inherited from its parent or is unique to the item? That would also be very valuable. After that I stop nagging :)

[gautamdsheth]

Done, not a nag at all Koen :)

I did change a few things like changing the return type and all, hope thats ok with you ?
