Feature request: allow specifying umask, dperm and fperm settings for afpd

Description

Currently there is no way to specify umask for mountpoints.

A customer requested this feature because it's useful to specify e.g. 002 rather than the default 022, to make it possible for different users to share file in the same group.

It's desirable to make it possible to specify these settings globally and per-mountpoint/share.

A quick hotfix would be just specifying umask: 002 for the :DEFAULT: line in AppleVolumes?.default which is generated by ix-netatalk.

One downside with these types of settings is that permission overrides only work for non-NFS filesharing, and won't interoperate correctly with NFS.

Exposing the knob for AFP would at least provide feature parity with CIFS. Samba has particularly powerful mode override options.

Do we need umask? Aren't fperm and dperm enough?
