Better support for filemode changes

Describe the issue

GitButler can lose filemodes from files (mainly executable +x, from .sh files) when doing changes.
Also losing the filemode (as shown by git ls-files --stage) and manually adding it with git-update-index --chmod=+x file.sh in workspace is not displayed in any useful way and is not included in commit and push.

Thanks a lot for reporting, and sorry for the hassle!

I believe this will be a thing of the past with the upcoming major release. GitButler still hides the index completely, but will handle it (and changes to it) correctly nonetheless.

To try out if commits would work already in said upcoming release, you can type v3 outside of anything editable and commit with it.
