create our cache and lib directory always with mode 755
We autocreate for a while now the last two directories in /var/lib/apt/lists (similar for /var/cache/apt/archives) which is very nice for systems having any of those on tmpfs or other non-persistent storage. This also means though that this creation is effected by the default umask, so for people with aggressive umasks like 027 the directories will be created with 750, which means all non-root users are left out, which is usually exactly what we want then this umask is set, but the cache and lib directories contain public knowledge. There isn't any need to protect them from viewers and they render apt completely useless if not readable.
