Set umask to 0 before installing an app

app-admin/webapp-config uses 'os.makedirs(dst_dir, perm(0o755))' to create new directories without any 'os.chown' after. If the configuration contains 'vhost_perms_serverowned_dir="0775"' or vhost_perms_serverowned_dir="g+w" those permissions will be filtered with the default python umask which is '022', resulting in a '0755' permission instead of a '0775' one.

To reproduce:
- set 'vhost_perms_serverowned_dir="0775"'
- Install any webapp that have server-owned dirs (e.g. owncloud)
- Verify the permission

An easy way to fix that is to call 'os.umask(0)' before creating dirs, as proposed in the provided patch

Patch confirmed, sane patch :)

blueness, commit whenever you want. It works.
