Show UNIX file permissions in file explorer

[babaric-dev]

Show file permission bits in UNIX (read, write, execute). This will be useful to check script permissions before running them.

Three ways of implementing this:

• Show full permissions (rwxr-xr-x)
  • Detailed permissions
  • Makes file explorer "bloated"
• Show numbers (755)
  • Some people may not know read=4,write=2,execute=1
  • Less "bloaty"
• Highlight files with executable bit set (like ls with colors)
  • Neat and simple
  • Maybe not detailed enough(?)

Here are some of my preferences.
