[GREENFOOT-819] Greenfoot project read-only warning not showing on Windows

On Mac, if you chmod -R a-w on a directory then open that as a Greenfoot scenario, you correctly get the dialog telling you the project is read-only and you need to save elsewhere first. On Windows, if you right-click a folder, tick "read only" then apply and say apply recursively, then when you open in Greenfoot, you don't get a warning, but you'll get problems editing code and so on. I'm not 100% confident about different Windows permissions (e.g. the Security tab for the folder still says I have access) but I think this should be enough for Greenfoot to show the read-only dialog on Windows.
