Retain suid/sgid/sticky bits in Metadata.permissions

Most users would expect set_permissions(Metadata.permissions()) to be
non-destructive. While we can't guarantee this, we can at least pass
the needed info to chmod.

Also update the PermissionsExt documentation to disambiguate what it
contains, and to refer to the underlying value as `st_mode` rather than
its type `mode_t`.

Closes #44147
