Test if the persistent filesystem's root directory needs to be world-readable

Things like #7443 (closed) would not be an issue if /live/persistence/TailsData_unlocked/ had e.g. permissions 0770. What prevents us from doing this? Possibly, we might want to add an ACL to grant the amnesia user read access to this directory, but it’s probably not really needed, as the persistent directories are usually bind-mounted to places that this user can read.
