Description
Currently the user capability required for restoring a trashed post or permanently deleting a trashed post is delete_post, which maps to delete_posts. There should be a separate capability for each of these actions.
Suggestion:
restore_trashed_postwhich maps torestore_trashed_postswhich maps todelete_posts.delete_trashed_postwhich maps todelete_trashed_postswhich maps todelete_posts.
Emptying the trash should use the delete_trashed_posts capability.
This allows for more granular control over which users can or cannot restore or permanently delete posts.
