[libvirt] [PATCH v3 4/4] storage: fs: Only force directory permissions if required

[Cole Robinson]

Only set directory permissions at pool build time, if:

- User explicitly requested a mode via the XML
- The directory needs to be created
- We need to do the crazy NFS root-squash workaround

This allows qemu:///session to call build on an existing directory
like /tmp.

v3:
    Minor code clarity tweaks
    Drop an unused variable while I'm here
