bitbake-worker/runqueue: Add support for BB_DEFAULT_UMASK
Currently each task has to have a umask specified individually. This is leading to determinism issues since it is easy to miss specifying this for an extra task. Add support for specifing the default task umask globally which simplifies the problem. Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
