[mkgmap-dev] Commit: r2314: Ignore access=permissive|designated|official just like access=yes.

Of course it's possible to make some access-changes in style-file. The 
"problem" is, that mkgmap does something "unknown" afterwards. It would 
be more transparent for style-devs, if there are only 2 values (yes and 
no) accepted by mkgmap and Garmin.

Now I have to do something, to ignore an access-value. This is a little 
bit strange. ;)
