80627b428b Fix linting error on Windows (#2759)
While testing some code on Windows, I ran into a failure when using `clippy` via (`make lint`):
```
error: this expression borrows a reference (`&str`) that is immediately dereferenced by the compiler
   --> common/filesystem/src/lib.rs:105:43
    |
105 |         let mut acl = ACL::from_file_path(&path_str, false).map_err(Error::UnableToRetrieveACL)?;
    |                                           ^^^^^^^^^ help: change this to: `path_str`
    |
    = note: `-D clippy::needless-borrow` implied by `-D warnings`
    = help: for further information visit https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#needless_borrow
    
error: could not compile `filesystem` due to previous error
```

## Proposed Changes

Remove the unnecessary borrow as suggested.

## Additional Info

Since we are only running `clippy` in CI on Ubuntu, I believe we don't have any way (in CI) to detect these Windows specific lint errors (either from new code, or from linting changes from new Rust versions. 
This is because code marked as `#[cfg(windows)]` is not checked on `unix` systems and vice versa.

I'm conscious that our CI runs are already taking a long time, and that adding a new Windows `clippy` run would add a non-negligible amount of time to the runs (not sure if this topic has already been discussed), but it something to be aware of.

## Extra Note
I don't think this is the case, but it might be worth someone else running `make lint` on their Windows machines to eliminate the possibility that this is an error specific to my setup.

6f18f95893 Update file permissions (#2499)
## Issue Addressed

Resolves #2438 
Resolves #2437 

## Proposed Changes

Changes the permissions for validator client http server api token file and secret key to 600 from 644. Also changes the permission for logfiles generated using the `--logfile` cli option to 600.

Logs the path to the api token instead of the actual api token. Updates docs to reflect the change.

ba55e140ae Enable Compatibility with Windows (#2333)
## Issue Addressed

Windows incompatibility.

## Proposed Changes

On windows, lighthouse needs to default to STDIN as tty doesn't exist. Also Windows uses ACLs for file permissions. So to mirror chmod 600, we will remove every entry in a file's ACL and add only a single SID that is an alias for the file owner.

Beyond that, there were several changes made to different unit tests because windows has slightly different error messages as well as frustrating nuances around killing a process :/

## Additional Info

Tested on my Windows VM and it appears to work, also compiled & tested on Linux with these changes. Permissions look correct on both platforms now. Just waiting for my validator to activate on Prater so I can test running full validator client on windows.
