Summary

This makes the behavior similar to cp

chmod u+s,g+s,o+x a
sudo llvm-strip a -o b
// With this patch, b drops set-user-ID and set-group-ID bits.
// sudo cp a b => b does not have set-user-ID or set-group-ID bits.

This also changes the behavior for the following case:

chmod u+s,g+s,o+x a
llvm-strip a
// a preserves set-user-ID and set-group-ID bits.
// This matches binutils<2.36 and probably >=2.37.  2.36 and 2.36.1 have some compatibility issues.

I am not particular up-to-speed on the file permissions stuff, so I'll defer to @manojgupta for the rest of the change.

I don't think this line will work. From the test comment at the top, "Windows has no umask". I don't appear to have it on my machine (which has GnuWin32 installed).

Yes, this is a good point about windows/umask . @MaskRay please consider removing or adjusting this test.
