Fix docs for glnx_file_replace_contents()
The docs for `glnx_file_replace_contents[_with_perms]` say that the default mode
is 0666 - umask, but it's actually 0644. Because there's no thread-safe way of
finding out the current umask without grubbing around in /proc/self/status,
simply make the docs reflect reality.
