[glib/wip/smcv/fileutils-test-as-root: 9/9] glib/tests/fileutils: Fix expectations when running as root




commit 50c9b1b0eaa2a0e53122e698d0c47cf35397ac59

    glib/tests/fileutils: Fix expectations when running as root
    
    This test asserts that g_file_set_contents_full() will fail when used
    on a read-only file, but processes with CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE on Linux or
    uid 0 on traditional Unix can and do ignore DAC permissions.
    See also #2027, #2028.
