Research direction

Start by inspecting source/cppfs/source/windows/LocalFileHandle.cpp at lines 201-204 and compare how file permissions are handled in other platform implementations. Determine the intended Windows permission behavior from the surrounding code and cross-platform interfaces; done means Windows file permissions are supported consistently without breaking existing behavior.
