[newlib-cygwin] Don't write NULL SID ACE if it's not necessary.

commit f75114fc597e05b2d3d14df4c264657e4de58221

    Don't write NULL SID ACE if it's not necessary.
    
    If the ACL is supposed to reflect only standard POSIX permissions,
    and if the permissions are so that user has more perms than group
    and group has more perms than other, we don't really need the NULL
    SID ACE.  If the permissions are that simple, get_posix_access will
    not call AuthZ.
    
    	* sec_acl.cc (set_posix_perms): Don't write NULL SID ACE if it's
    	not required.  Explain why.
