ssh-mcp refuses to start if its config is group/world-readable (mode & 0o077 →
throws, requiring dir 0700 / file 0600). A GUI user has no idea what chmod 600
means — they just get a dead server. This checks it and offers a one-click fix.

Core (pure, POSIX-only, injectable stat/chmod so tests never touch a real file):
- permission_status(path): the ssh-mcp rule — any group/other bit set (mode & 0o077)
  is not-ok; file must be 0600, its dir 0700. Returns None on Windows (modes don't
  apply) or when the file is absent (nothing to pre-flight). Plain-language problems
  naming the offending octal mode.
- fix_permissions(path): chmod file → 0600, dir → 0700. No-op on Windows; reports
  an OSError instead of raising.
- sidecar_permission_warnings() / sidecar_permission_fix_target(): tie the check to
  #91's sidecar path resolution so it knows WHICH file to inspect. Mirror the
  sidecar-warnings shape.

GUI: a warning label + "Fix permissions" button in the stdio editor (mirrors the
removed-flag surface), shown only when the sidecar exists and is too open. Hidden
on Windows and for non-sidecar servers. Smoke-tested headlessly.

pytest green (529 passed), ruff + format clean. Closes #93. Part of epic #94.
