** [tickets:#8127] Fix how we write the .google_authenticator file**

**Status:** review
**Milestone:** unreleased
**Labels:** security

**Owner:** Dave Brondsema


The google authenticator PAM module will write the `.google_authenticator` files with permission `400 (-r--------)` and then Allura can't write to it.  We also need to write it with `400` or `600` perms, so it is secure for PAM to use it afterwards.  And best to do it atomically, with a file rename operation.
