builddeb: fix file permissions before packaging
Builddep is not very explicit about file permissions. Actually the file permissions in the package are largely influenced by the umask of the user cloning the git and building the package. If that umask does not set go+r the resulting linux-headers package will prevent non-root users from building out-of-tree modules. And that is probably just one unexpected effect. Being a packaging/install tool builddep should make sure the file permissions are set correctly and not just derived from a value that is never checked. This patch sets ugo read permissions for all packaged files and derives the executable bit for directories and executables from the file-owner.
