Add Star Castle game mechanic #10

Right now, destroying files ain't much fun. Let's add another game mechanic. Star Castle can be used for inspiration. Perhaps some files can have several layers surrounding them which the player has to destroy before they can destroy the actual file?

We could determine the file access rights of the server process. If the process does not have write access to a file (e.g. because the user didn't start the server process as root/Administrator) a Star Castle can be spawned around a file.

This would also allow for a fun game mechanic or a nice joke; we can ask users (in-game) to restart the server as root, e.g. via some kind of chat prompt (" Hot Tech Tip: restart the server process as root to get rid of these pesky file protection layers!")
