setup: prepare for more detailed "dubious ownership" messages

When verifying the ownership of the Git directory, we sometimes would
like to say a bit more about it, e.g. when using a platform-dependent
code path (think: Windows has the permission model that is so different
from Unix'), but only when it is a appropriate to actually say
something.

To allow for that, collect that information and hand it back to the
caller (whose responsibility it is to show it or not).

Note: We do not actually fill in any platform-dependent information yet,
this commit just adds the infrastructure to be able to do so.
