Description Mike Wilson

There are use cases where artifacts are produced by Orion that need to have particular combinations of mode bits set. The most common one being the "executable" bit that is needed on linux to make (for example) scripts executable.

It seems like the simplest way to do this would be via the shell (e.g. Docker) support, but there are a couple of wrinkles:

- if we are using file sync to move files between the workspace and the shell's file system, then we would need to respect changes in these bits

- we would need to think about how this impacts the files within Orion itself. For example, we would need to behave properly if files are marked r/o, etc.
