package.bbclass: ensure correct modes on directories

1.7.9.5

Previously, when we create directories in populate_packages, the directory modes are not all correct. Take the base-files recipe as an example. The directory package/home has mode 2755, but packages-split/base-files/home has mode 0755.

So after using creating directory, we need to use chmod to ensure it gets the correct mode.

This doesn't make sense. Shouldn't the fstat.st_mode to os.mkdir have taken care of the mode for us?
