(151/185) 341 - FTP: set buffer read-only flag from remote file

When opening a file from sftp:// which is read-only on the remote filesystem, the buffer should be flagged read-only to prevent unintentional edits - consistent with local file behaviour.

See also #340 which is related in terms of the backend required (retrieving file permission bits over SFTP).
