P2 Badge Preserve exact 0600 despite umask

In environments where the helper or tests run with a restrictive umask that masks owner bits (for example umask 0777), open(..., 0o600) creates the temp file with the mode after umask (e.g. 0000) and the subsequent rename preserves that mode. The previous setAttributes(.posixPermissions: 0o600) corrected this before rename, and testJournalFilePermissions expects the final journal to be exactly 0600; add an fchmod(fd, 0o600) after opening so the final file mode does not depend on process umask.
