Hi,

Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0], we noticed that
taffybar could not be built reproducibly.

This is because the permissions of a directory in the binary can vary
on the umask:

│ │ │ │ -drwxr-xr-x   0 root         (0) root         (0)        0 2023-10-25 06:27:09.000000 ./usr/share/taffybar/
│ │ │ │ -drwxr-xr-x   0 root         (0) root         (0)        0 2023-10-25 06:27:09.000000 ./usr/share/taffybar/icons/
│ │ │ │ +drwxrwxr-x   0 root         (0) root         (0)        0 2023-10-25 06:27:09.000000 ./usr/share/taffybar/
│ │ │ │ +drwxrwxr-x   0 root         (0) root         (0)        0 2023-10-25 06:27:09.000000 ./usr/share/taffybar/icons/

Patch attached that manually calls chmod on these directories.
