Add permission to view token tree in node edit form for performance reasons [#1369294]

I have a website I enabled this on right now that becomes really slow because of the tokentree that is beeing loaded completly. The site itself was already slow I admit but loading that tree adds up in a major way.

I would really like to see a permission that allow us to not allow a user to browse the tokentree and just hides it.

I hope this can be made possible.

Beyond that, it would be nice to disable token use completely. The token tree adds nearly 6,000 lines of HTML to my node edit pages.

Thanks for this patch. Would be nice to include the performance warning in the description of the permission.

Also, the title of the permission is a bit misleading. If there are tokens already in meta fields because a user with permissions add them, it doesn't cause the fields to become in accessible or prevent the user from saving the form or adding tokens manually. It simply removes the token tree.
