Please add JackrabbitSession.isAdmin
------------------------------------

                 Key: JCR-2910
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-2910
             Project: Jackrabbit Content Repository
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Thomas Mueller
            Priority: Minor


Currently finding out if the session user is an admin requires:

JackrabbitSession js = (JackrabbitSession) session;
User user = ((User) js.getUserManager().getAuthorizable(session.getUserID()));
boolean isAdmin = user.isAdmin();

Or: ((SessionImpl) session).isAdmin(). However casting to an implementation is 
problematic for several reasons.

I think it would make sense to add isAdmin() to the JackrabbitSession 
interface, so the code above would be:

((JackrabbitSession) session).isAdmin()
