Issue #3179968: Permissions gone away after update

Nigel Cunningham requested to merge issue/permissions_by_term-3179968:permissions_by_term-3179968/3179968-untagged-content-inaccessible-to-anonymous-users-3.1 into 3.1.x-dev

Updated patch against 3.1.

This patch fixes the issue with pages becoming unavailable to anonymous users in 2.26 and 2.27. The basic issue is that PBT creates node_access records for all nodes, even when they have no terms assigned and the 'Permission node' option is disabled.

The patch also includes a drush command to allow the user to rebuild permissions affected by the bug and patches to prevent an unnecessary full node access table rebuild. The site I am using PBT on is a government site that has most of a million nodes and takes 5 hours to rebuild node access tables. Rebuilding the node access table is not an option. The code that rebuilds only the affected nodes was reused for the drush command - otherwise I'd not conflate the two patches.
