fix: ensure supportedVersions cache is created with secure permissions (0600)
This PR fixes incorrect permission mode for the supportedVersions ElectronStore cache file.
The file was created with default permissions (~644), which caused permission errors when reading the cache in some environments.
This fix sets fileMode: 0o600 so the cache is readable and writable only by the current user.
Tested on Windows and WSL β the cache file is now created with 600 permissions.

Closes #3147

Walkthrough
Modifies ElectronStore initialization to set file permissions to 0o600 (read/write only for owner) instead of the default permissive mode, addressing a security issue. Also restructures error logging in the request handler with explicit branches for different error types.
Changes
| Cohort / File(s) | Summary |
|---|---|
ElectronStore Configuration & Error Logging src/servers/supportedVersions/main.ts |
Introduces MyStoreOptions interface and sets fileMode: 0o600 on ElectronStore initialization for restrictive file permissions. Refactors logRequestError with explicit branching: logs error.message for AxiosErrors without response, and updates non-AxiosError logging pattern with literal error description string. |
Estimated code review effort
π― 1 (Trivial) | β±οΈ ~5 minutes
- Single-file change with straightforward configuration and logging updates
- No complex logic, control flow changes, or multi-component interactions
- Security fix follows standard permission-setting pattern
- Error logging improvements are incremental and isolated
Poem
π° A rabbit hops through the config, so fine,
Setting permissions to 0o600 in a line,
No more world-writable woes,
Secure file modes the whole tunnel knows! πβ¨
