This commit addresses facebook#2491. Note that a downside of this solution is that it is global: `umask()` affects all file creation calls in the process. I believe this is safe since `fileio.c` functions should only ever be used in the zstd binary, and these are (almost) the only files ever created by zstd, and AIUI they're only created in a single thread. So we can get away with messing with global state. Note that this doesn't change the permissions of files created by `dibio.c`. I'm not sure what those should be...
