Add a umask option to community.general.npm

[bnogaro]

Summary

When globally installing npm packages (global: true), if the root user has a restrictive umask (e.g. 027), pacakges are not readable or executable.
It would be nice to have a umask option, in the same fashion as the pip ansible module, for these specific tasks.

Issue Type

Component Name

Additional Information

The option would simply has to be

- name: Globally install npm-groovy-lint
  community.general.npm:
    name: npm-groovy-lint
    global: true
    umask: "022"
