unix_mode provides functions to decode, interpret, and display Unix mode bits and permissions, even on non-Unix platforms.

On Unix, decoding is supported by std::os::unix::fs in the standard library, but this crate adds a function to render them in the format used by ls -l, and to understand the file type and permissions.

assert_eq!(unix_mode::to_string(0o0040755), "drwxr-xr-x");
assert_eq!(unix_mode::to_string(0o0100640), "-rw-r-----");

assert_eq!(unix_mode::is_symlink(0o0040755), false);
