relax /system/bin directory permissions
In commit f4fc922f, we tightened the permissions on various bin directories. Please see https://android-review.googlesource.com/c/platform/system/core/+/822955 for details. This change causes the Chase banking app to crash. This is because the Chase app is using inotify_add_watch() on the /system/bin directory and not checking the return value. The Android Security model guarantees the immutability of files in /system/bin, so the inotify watch is unnecessary. Until the Chase app fixes their bug, we need to relax the permissions on the /system/bin directory. Conceptually, this is a partial revert of f4fc922f.
