Add vfs_time accessors to help convert vfs timestamps to use 64 bit times. These create an abstraction layer so that vfs inode times can be switched to struct timespec64 from struct timespec without breaking the individual filesystems after they have incorporated these. Add vfs_time data type aliases to help convert vfs timestamps to use 64 bit times. These create an abstraction layer so that vfs inode times can be switched to struct timespec64 instead of struct timespec. Use uapi exposed data types, timespec and timespec64 here to keep minimal timestamp data type conversions in API's interfacing with vfs.
