Merge pull request #638 from Silejonu/main

acl: correctly assert needed changes when recursive is true

SUMMARY
Right now, when setting recursive ACLs on a directory, all files in the directory are tested to check if a change is needed. If a single file has expected ACLs already set, then the test returns False and no changes are applied.
Fixes #592
ISSUE TYPE


Bugfix Pull Request

COMPONENT NAME
acl
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I'm very much a beginner in Python, so any criticism is welcome.
