/**
 * Prepend the given access callback to the chain.
 *
 * The client module should call this function from its hook_menu_alter()
 * implementation to install its access callback.
 *
 * NOTE: hook_menu_alter() is called only when the menu router table is
 * rebuilt after the menu cache was flushed.
 *
 * NOTE: MENU_DEFAULT_LOCAL_TASK items should not specify access parameters
 * but inherit them from their parent item, because access should not be
 * different between the two. If a client module tries to chain to such an item,
 * the item's access parameters are cleared only.
 *
 * @param array $items
 *   The menu router items array.
 *   Do not try to chain MENU_DEFAULT_LOCAL_TASK items -- chain their parent
 *   items instead.
 * @param string $path
 *   The index into $items to the item to modify.
 * @param string $new_access_callback
 *   The name of the client's access callback function, as documented for
 *   the 'access callback' key in hook_menu().
 * @param array $new_access_arguments
 *   An array holding the arguments to be passed to the new access callback,
 *   as documented for the 'access arguments' key in hook_menu().
 * @param bool $or_or_pass_index
 *   Pass FALSE to evaluate ($new_access_callback() && $old_access_callback()).
 *   Pass TRUE to evaluate ($new_access_callback() || $old_access_callback()).
 *   Pass a number to evaluate $old_access_callback() first and then pass
 *   the result as the $pass_index-th argument in $new_access_arguments to
 *   $new_access_callback().
 *
 * @return bool
 *   TRUE if the chaining succeeded, FALSE if a MENU_DEFAULT_LOCAL_TASK item.
