New description:
As pointed out here: #11660 and here: #11664 archives have to be world-
readable. sage-pkg does not enforce this.
The following patch adds options to {{{sage -pkg}}} which allow to force
anonymous or world-readable file settings (or both).

Comment(by jdemeyer):
My personal opinion on this is still that we don't need any of these
options, I don't think `sage -spkg` should mess with permissions or user
names.
