Adding a os.have_openat seems more reasonable than adding is_implemented

a much more specific piece of information.
We already have "os.have_openat"; it's spelled
sysconfig.get_config_var('HAVE_OPENAT'). But, assuming I land issue
14626, this leads us to:
Q: Can I use the dir_fd parameter to os.open?
A: Only if sysconfig.get_config_var('HAVE_OPENAT') is true.
Q: Can I use the fd parameter to os.utime?
A: Only if sysconfig.get_config_var('HAVE_FUTIMENS') or
sysconfig.get_config_var('HAVE_FUTIMES') is true.
I feel this interface lacks civility.
