Title:
  Updating any gsettings key makes user dconf database unreadable

Status in adsys package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in adsys source package in Focal:
  New
Status in adsys source package in Jammy:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Changing any gsettings key in AD resulted in user databases under /etc/dconf, 
owned by root, with 0600 as permissions. This change was done late in the cycle 
after passing some permissions checkers to harden the binaries.
  However, in that case, the user databases needs to be readable by the users 
so that they can apply those values, so we need to align with ibus profile and 
makes them 644.

  [Test case]
  * Change a gsettings key under AD, like picture-uri one.
  * Login on the Ubuntu laptop connected with AD by adsys
  * The background should now be changed to the set value.

  [Where problems could occur]
  This code is located in the dconf policy application manager and restricted 
to it. The negative impact in case of a new bug will be seen by gsettings key 
not being applied as it is already nowdays.
