fix(desktop): write preferences owner-only on Unix (#200) (#235)

state.json holds online owner tokens. The temporary file is now created
0600 (and narrowed if a crash left one behind) before anything is written,
and the rename carries that mode to state.json, so an older
world-readable file is replaced on the next save.
