setup:upgrade want's to have full var/ writeable

[amenk]

When there is a file like var/.hiawatha which is not writable, bin/magento setup:upgrade fails

Error:

 Missing write permissions to the following directories: '/WebServer/websites/example/staging/var'

Also this is hard to debug - would be good, if it shows where the error comes from (it is \Magento\Setup\Model\FilePermissions::checkRecursiveDirectories)

This was fixed back in Jan and will be part of 2.1. @chong1227 this change was part of much larger change, so it's hard to extract.
