[PATCH 2/3] erofs-utils: lib: s3: set UID & GID correctly

In the current remote/s3 implementation, the default {u,g}id for files
and directories is 0. Additionally, the --force-{u,g}id flag only
affects file ownership, leaving directories unchanged.

This patch fixes the behavior by explicitly setting permissions for the
root inode:

- If --force-{u,g}id is not specified, it now defaults to the current
  user's {u,g}id.
- If --force-{u,g}id is specified, it correctly updates the ownership
  for all files and directories.
