Subject: [PATCH] os: add File.Chown on the unix path
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

file_unix.go (darwin/linux/wasip) was missing the exported (*File).Chown method
that file_other.go (baremetal/wasm) already has, so callers requiring the full
os.File surface — e.g. github.com/pkg/sftp — failed to compile for the
linux/amd64 TinyGo target. Delegates to the package-level Chown, mirroring
(*File).Truncate.
