FS#379 - pkgutils: rejmerge ignores directory permissions

if a directory, rejected by pkgadd, has new/other permissions or user/group than the installed one, rejmerge should do an update which the current version refused to do.

How to reproduce:

1. echo >> /var/spool/cron/crontabs/root
2. chown daemon /var/spool/cron/crontabs
3. cd /usr/ports/core/dcron
4. pkgmk -u

pkgadd reports something like that:

pkgadd: rejecting var/spool/cron/crontabs/, keeping existing version
pkgadd: rejecting var/spool/cron/crontabs/root, keeping existing'version

5. run rejmerge

Note:
step 1. above is necessary because pkgadd doesn't add empty directories to /var/lib/pkg/rejected, which might be considered as bug as well.

Attached patch adds a check of directory permissions to rejmerge.

That issue was already reported with ticket #122

This comment was added from  FS#122  (Opened by Mark Rosenstand) which I closed as duplicated:

"If a directory matches UPGRADE NO and the permissions are different from the installed directory, it gets rejected. However, rejmerge gladly ignore them (whereas the user is prompted for an action when file permissions change) and delete the rejected directory."
