phabricator: handle local:commits time being string or int

When setting local:commits arcanist has different behaviour depending on
whether the repo is git or hg. With hg it sets the time as a number, since it
calls PHP's strtotime on the value, but with git it sets it as a string.
Normally this wouldn't be an issue since phabread wouldn't be interacting with
Phabricator Revisions for git repos, but Mozilla has a secondary workflow for
git users that uses the git-cinnabar tool to interact with their hg repos. When
a git-cinnabar user uses the moz-phab tool to submit patches for mozilla-central
it makes use of Mozilla's fork of arcanist, which works with their local git
version of m-c, and thus sets the local:commit time as a string, and then
translates the commit hashes.

Currently when encountering such DREVS phabread dies with "TypeError: %d format:
a number is required, not str".

phabsend also used to set it as a string but wouldn't have encountered the
issue with its own DREVs since it would read hg:meta first.

#require no-pure

A script to generate nasty diff worst-case scenarios:

  $ cat > s.py <<EOF
  > import random
  > for x in range(100000):
  >     print
  >     if random.randint(0, 100) >= 50:
  >         x += 1
  >     print(hex(x))
  > EOF

  $ hg init a
  $ cd a

Check in a big file:

  $ "$PYTHON" ../s.py > a
  $ hg ci -qAm0

Modify it:

  $ "$PYTHON" ../s.py > a

Time a check-in, should never take more than 10 seconds user time:

  $ hg ci --time -m1
  time: real .* secs .user [0-9][.].* sys .* (re)
