Rollup merge of #109263 - squell:master, r=cuviper
fix typo in documentation for std::fs::Permissions Please check and re-check this PR carefully to see if I got this right. But by my logic, if the `read_only` function returns `true`, I would not expect be able to write to the file (it being read only); so this text is meant to clarify that `read_only` being `false` doesn't mean *you* can actually write to the file, just that "in general" someone is able to.
