buf_file, buf_file_single: document file_permission and dir_permission - #664
Merged

Conversation
Both buffer plugins accept `file_permission` and `dir_permission`, but neither parameter was described in the documentation. * `buf_file`: introduced by fluentd 2612e9f8 (buf_file2.rb, released in v0.14.0), renamed to buf_file.rb by 7ee586c6. * `buf_file_single`: introduced by fluentd dac13f04, released in v1.7.0. The description follows the `desc` strings declared in buf_file_single.rb and the fallback chain implemented in both plugins: the plugin parameter takes precedence, then the `<system>` setting, then 0644 / 0755.
