Problem statement

Calling Permutation([[0,1],[0,1]]) raises a ValueError instead of constructing the identity permutation. If the cycles passed in are non-disjoint, they should be applied in left-to-right order and the resulting permutation should be returned.

This should be easy to compute. I don't see a reason why non-disjoint cycles should be forbidden.
