bug: mac/bsd vs linux detection doesn't work properly and on linux, code always complains about permission of the credential file

[bennetyee]

this

main...bennetyee:SPAN-API-Client-Docs:mac-v-linux

works, but maybe a different fix would be preferred?

Another possibility is instead of

    perms=$(stat -f "%Lp" "$path" 2>/dev/null || stat -c "%a" "$path" 2>/dev/null)

do instead

    perms=$(python3 -c 'import os,sys; print(f"{os.stat(sys.argv[1]).st_mode & 0o777:o}");' "$path")
