Skip the chmod-based unreadable-sidecar tests when running as root

The Gitea runner image executes jobs as root, and chmod(0) cannot make a file
unreadable for root (CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE) — the two tests failed there while
passing on GitHub's non-root runner. Skipping as root keeps the scenario
exercised everywhere it is constructible.
