/// On Unix-based platforms this checks if *any* of the owner, group or others
/// write permission bits are set. It does not check if the current
/// user is in the file's assigned group. It also does not check ACLs.
/// Therefore even if this returns true you may not be able to write to the
/// file, and vice versa. The [`PermissionsExt`] trait gives direct access
/// to the permission bits but also does not read ACLs. If you need to
/// accurately know whether or not a file is writable use the `access()`
/// function from libc.
/// Therefore the return value of this function cannot be relied upon
/// to predict whether attempts to read or write the file will actually succeed.
