The Garmin doesn't do "permissive" - it really only does yes or no so
the choice is one of:

permissive = yes

permissive = no

permissive is ignored

Yonks ago I decided that permissive was more like yes than no so
that's how it is treated in mkgmap.

I think that's the case but I haven't checked for a long time.
