+/**
+ * `PermissionsAndroid` provides access to Android M's new permissions model.
+ * Some permissions are granted by default when the application is installed
+ * so long as they appear in `AndroidManifest.xml`. However, "dangerous"
+ * permissions require a dialog prompt. You should use this module for those
+ * permissions.
+ *
+ * On devices before SDK version 23, the permissions are automatically granted
+ * if they appear in the manifest, so `checkPermission` and `requestPermission`
+ * should always be true.
+ *
+ * If a user has previously turned off a permission that you prompt for, the OS
+ * will advise your app to show a rationale for needing the permission. The
+ * optional `rationale` argument will show a dialog prompt only if
+ * necessary - otherwise the normal permission prompt will appear.
+ *
+ * ### Example
+ * ```
+ * async function requestCameraPermission() {
+ *   try {
+ *     const granted = await AndroidPermissions.requestPermission(
+ *       AndroidPermissions.PERMISSIONS.CAMERA,
+ *       {
+ *         'title': 'Cool Photo App Camera Permission',
+ *         'message': 'Cool Photo App needs access to your camera ' +
+ *                    'so you can take awesome pictures.'
+ *       }
+ *     )
+ *     if (granted) {
+ *       console.log("You can use the camera")
+ *     } else {
+ *       console.log("Camera permission denied")
