[issue11457] os.stat(): add new fields to get timestamps as Decimal objects with nanosecond resolution

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor <victor.stinner at haypocalc.com> added the comment:

With the new function time.wallclock() and time.clock_gettime() (issue #10278), and maybe time.monotonic() will maybe be also added (issue #13846), I now agree that it is important to support t2-t1 to compute a difference. Using a tuple, it's not easy to compute a difference.

time.wallclock(), time.clock_gettime() and time.monotonic() have a nanosecond resolution on Linux. Using issue #13845, time.time() will have a resolution of 100 ns on Windows.
