the server knows nothing about the umask, we have to do it on the client side. This patch tries to fetch the parent directory's default ACL before creating a new file, computes the appropriate create mode to send to the server, and finally sets the new file's access and default acl appropriately. Many thanks to Buck Huppmann for sending the initial version of this patch, as well as for arguing why we need this change.
