Hi,

A colleague of mine pointed out they had occasionally observed that some
layers of a commit-graph chain appear to be have both read and write
permission bits for the user, while others are marked as read-only.

After some investigation, I realized that this only happens to the first
layer in a commit-graph-chain, and occurs when we move a non-split graph
into a chain as the new base. Since write_commit_graph() just renames in
this case, we carry over the 0644 permissions that we create non-split
graphs with, even though split graphs are created to be read-only.

Initially, I resolved this by 'chmod(graph, 0444)'-ing the graph after
renaming it into place, but it ends up being much cleaner if we
introduce an additional parameter in 'hold_lock_file_for_update' for a
mode.

The first two patches set this up, and the third patch uses it in
commit-graph.c, and corrects some test fallout. Eventually, we may want
to take another look at all of this and always create lockfiles with
permission 0444, but that change is much larger than this one and could
instead be done over time.

Thanks,
Taylor
