dirstate-v2: Separate HAS_FILE_MTIME and HAS_DIRECTORY_MTIME flags

Previously the same flag was used, with its meaning based on whether the node
otherwise identifies a file tracked anywhere.

In addition to being more explicit, this enables storing a directory mtime
if a given path used to be tracked in a parent commit (so the dirstate still
has data about it) but became a directory in the working copy.
(However this is not done yet as it would require a larger change,
replacing the `dirstate_map::NodeData` enum with struct fields.)

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
