util: add filestat class to detect ambiguity of file stat

Current posix.cachestat implementation might overlook change of a
file, if changing keeps ctime, mtime and size of file. Comparison of
inode number also overlooks changing in such situation, because inode
number is rapidly reused.

Contents of a file cached before changing isn't invalidated as
expected, if change of a file is overlooked for this "ambiguity" of
file stat.

This patch adds filestat class to detect ambiguity of file stat.

This patch is a part of preparation for "Exact Cache Validation Plan":
