rCOMMec961262c8c1: [lib] Pull `filterOutDisabledPermissions(permissionsBitmask)` out of…

Summary

We will need to use this logic at permission check sites (eg threadMemberHasPermission/threadHasPermission/etc). Eventually we'll consolidate so we use one hook for everything, but for now we're going to use this in a couple places so we can first remove usage from getCurrentUser.

Depends on D11741

Test Plan

This is a very simple extract/move diff. flow + careful reading + will be tested implicitly by later diffs in the stack.

993	This function name sounds confusing. We receive a permissions bitmask, decode it, add more permissions to it, and encode. So we're adding some permissions instead of filtering some out.

lib/shared/thread-utils.js
993	We're not adding more permissions, but we could potentially be adding more permission entries. We're overriding value of permissions in `decodedPermission` (if they exist) with `{ value: false, source: null }` if the key/permission is also in `disabledPermissions`: So we're effectively filtering out permissions, but could also name this something like `patchDisabledPermissions` or `patchPermissionsBitmaskForBlock` or something like that? If that would be preferred I can create a followup diff doing that rename. I think current name makes sense for now.
