• Installs cancancan
• Created an enum on the User model ( :user and :admin )
• Creates a basic abilities.rb file
• Adds a generic access_denied method on application_controller

This is a basic framework for role-based permissions. The admin generator will optionally use this if you don't install a seperate AdminUser class.
