Code Review
The pull request successfully implements the functionality to make overlaid files executable in http_archive, which is crucial for supporting shell scripts in registry overlays. The changes to MODULE.bazel.lock are expected updates due to underlying .bzl file modifications. The core change in tools/build_defs/repo/utils.bzl directly addresses the stated goal of the pull request by setting the executable flag to True for downloaded remote files, enabling proper execution of shell scripts. No critical or high severity issues were found in the provided changes.
