fuse: fix permission checking on sticky directories
The VFS checks sticky bits on the parent directory even if the filesystem defines it's own ->permission(). In some situations (sshfs, mountlo, etc) the user does have permission to delete a file even if the attribute based checking would not allow it. So work around this by storing the permission bits separately and returning them in stat(), but cutting the permission bits off from inode->i_mode. This is slightly hackish, but it's probably not worth it to add new infrastructure in VFS and a slight performance penalty for all filesystems, just for the sake of fuse.
