Adding 'Patent' to WITH_PERMISSION_ONLY

Ideally we would track these separately but practically they fall into
the same category as the restricted license. It is on the OWNERS and the
reviewers to make sure that they comply with the terms of a Patent file
or any license. Currently we are just generating presubmit warnings that
are being ignored.

This will also enable future tooling that utilises this list for
auditing restricted licenses to surface Patent files.
