Summary
The set method allows to change a given permission for a given app.
Depending on the privileges of the applications, some permissions are implicit. If for some reason the application tries to change permission for an implicit one, an error will be thrown. In order to avoid such errors, it's possible to check if the permission is explicit with the PermissionSettings.isExplicit() method.
