Trivial PR to fix the default permissions of the cygwin.yaml file. Previously it was incorrectly marked executable.
This is likely because by default the way cygwin "mounts" windows filesystems, it uses only the bare minimum emulation of posix permissions, which is very limited, and requires setting all files as executable so that any files can be executable. However, it is also possible to mount filesystems and directories with the full "acl" support option, which manipulates Windows ACLs to get more accurate POSIX-emulation. In either case there's no reason the file should be marked executable in the repository.
