Socat port permissions

George Kontogiorgos requested to merge allow_all_users into main

Here we made the permissions of the virtual ports created by socat configurable. By default we allow read and write for owner, group and public (0666) for both ends, as E3 suggested. This is done by executing chmod command on after socat starts on the system service file.

Hence all users are allowed to use the ports and neither user or group settings are longer needed by socat.
