Newly installed binary is not executable

[natemcintosh]

Goal

While the binary is currently installed in the right place, it is not executable. It should automatically be made executable.

Context

To make this work on linux and mac, I would usually run chmod +x <name_of_file>. I expect we can do the same here. However, I am less sure of how this works on windows; will have to make a list of things that may/will be different if the tool ever gets to that point.

Required features

• Make the newly downloaded file executable

Out of scope

• Anything beyond making it executable

• std::fs:set_permissions() is probably what I want.
