adfs: improve timestamp precision
ADFS (FileCore) storage complies with the RISC OS timestamp specification
(40-bit centiseconds since 01 Jan 1900 00:00:00). It is desirable that
stored timestamp precision be maintained to facilitate a precise copy of
data and metadata from a hard disc (or image thereof) into a RISC OS
emulator (such as RPCEmu).
This patch implements a full-precision conversion from ADFS to Unix
timestamp as the existing driver, for ease of calculation with old 32-bit
compilers, uses the common trick of shifting the 40-bits representing
centiseconds around into 32-bits representing seconds thereby losing
precision.
