chgserver: update the umask cache before each run

posix.py uses a global variable to store the umask value resulting in caching of
it when using chg. We need to update it before each command run as the umask can
change between commands.

This fixes test-inherit-mode.t with chg.

This library provides encoding and decoding for the Concise Binary Object Representation (CBOR)
(`RFC 7049`_) serialization format.

There exists another Python CBOR implementation (cbor) which is faster on CPython due to its C
extensions. On PyPy, cbor2 and cbor are almost identical in performance. The other implementation
also lacks documentation and a comprehensive test suite, does not support most standard extension
tags and is known to crash (segfault) when passed a cyclic structure (say, a list containing
itself).
