If a second declaration for a setting is encountered, it is ignored if Type and Default are the same. Otherwise a permission_error is raised.

`Type`	`Type` for setting. One of `any` or a type defined by must_be/2.
`Default`	`Default` value for the setting.
`Comment`	Atom containing a (short) descriptive note.
