[PATCH] Y2038: provide kernel support indication

["Albert ARIBAUD (3ADEV)" <albert dot aribaud at 3adev dot fr>]

* New function __y2038_get_kernel_support() returns:
  * 0 if the underlying kernel does not support Y2038 at all
  * > 0 if the underlying kernel has some support for Y2038
  * < 0 if the underlying kernel support for Y2038 is broken
* New function __y2038_set_kernel_support() allows indicating
  a kernel's Y2038 support (or support failure)
* Default implementation (covering non-Linux kernels) always
  returns 0 (no support).
