Fix ZSH compinit

Occasionally ZSH will complain with this error:

zsh compinit: insecure directories, run compaudit for list.
Ignore insecure directories and continue [y] or abort compinit [n]?

To fix this you must update permissions on some directories

# Works on older MacOS Versions. Might not work one newer ones
sudo chmod -R 755 /usr/local/share/zsh/site-functions
sudo chown -R root:root /usr/local/share/zsh/site-functions

# Works on new MacOS Versions.
sudo chmod -R 755 /usr/local/share/zsh
sudo chown -R root:staff /usr/local/share/zsh
