Windows opens files with permissions for the current user, and not for anyone else.

We currently map Group & Other permissions to the user. This is wrong.

Proposal is instead to map POSIX Other -> Windows Everyone, and POSIX Group -> Windows Primary Group
user is member of.

This issue is not about fixing representation of User and Group IDs as an integer.
