Creating config 0600 disregarding umask breaks scenarios where daemons
run with credentials different from config owner (but need to read the
config).

File::Temp defaults to 0600, which is unsuitable for the
recommended/typical scenario of daemons running unprivileged and with
UID different from $PI_CONFIG owner, as the deamons need to read
$PI_CONFIG.

Respecting umask might end up creating world-unreadable config, too,
but for people who use such umask that's expected behavior.
