Description

Currently all the nar and jar files under lib and lib/boostrap have the 640 permissions. That means it can't even be read by "other".

When I extract it as "root" but want to run as "nifi" this causes it to fail because the "nifi" user cannot read the jar files.

I don't think there's a particular harm in having others being able to read those files. So I'd like to change the assembly to include those as 644 if there are no objections.
