[issue14127] add st_*time_ns fields to os.stat(), add ns keyword to os.*utime*(), os.*utimens*() expects a number of nanoseconds

YAGNI.  Worst case, you can use call futimes twice, once with no args, then fstat() it to get the current-ish time and rewrite the fields selectively.

Do you have code where you selectively use UTIME_NOW for only one of the two fields?
