+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #2181552 +++

Description of problem:
 
The imjournal module is not checking the Legacy $FileCreateMode parameter, and in consequence the imjournal state file is being created with a different mode than the expected.
 
Currently, defining the mode for this file is not possible.
 
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
From at least rsyslog-8.2102.0-105.el9 to latest.
 
How reproducible:
Always
 
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set $umask 0000
2. Set the desired $FileCreateMode
3. Configure the imjournal module and $imjournalStateFile
4. Check the mode of the imjournal state file
 
Actual results:
The mode is not the expected because $FileCreateMode is not being checked.
 
Expected results:
The imjournal state file is created with the mode declared with $FileCreateMode.
