Add internal mutt_ctime() implementation.
ctime() is marked obsolescent in the POSIX guide, so we ought to stop
using it to ensure future portability.
ctime() may be marked obsolescent in the POSIX guide, but it is still
specified by ISO C, and AFAIK, not marked obsolescent there, even in
the latest C2x draft N2176.
Moreover, ISO C says: "It is equivalent to
asctime(localtime(timer))"
So, if you want to replace ctime(), why no using just that?
... unless there is an issue with asctime(), in which case ctime()
would be affected as a consequence.
