Description

Working with permissions on Windows seems to be unresolved at the moment. This needs to be implemented to allow for various code in stout to work in a cross-platform way. This https://github.com/apache/mesos/commit/6271682e67e0afa4c2d9395f7296e3bebbe909ff is one example where an ifndef is required due to os::which working with permissions underneath.

There is a current effort to move permissions.hpp under posix/ but that brought up the issue of the header being included from sources that are cross-platform https://reviews.apache.org/r/60693/
