According to the official documentation for HFS+ [1], inode timestamps
are supposed to cover the time range from 1904 to 2040 as originally
used in classic MacOS.

The traditional Linux usage is to convert the timestamps into an unsigned
32-bit number based on the Unix epoch and from there to a time_t. On
32-bit systems, that wraps the time from 2038 to 1902, so the last
two years of the valid time range become garbled. On 64-bit systems,
all times before 1970 get turned into timestamps between 2038 and 2106,
which is more convenient but also different from the documented behavior.

Looking at the Darwin sources [2], it seems that MacOS is inconsistent in
yet another way: all timestamps are wrapped around to a 32-bit unsigned
number when written to the disk, but when read back, all numeric values
lower than 2082844800U are assumed to be invalid, so we cannot represent
the times before 1970 or the times after 2040.

While all implementations seem to agree on the interpretation of values
between 1970 and 2038, they often differ on the exact range they support
when reading back values outside of the common range:

MacOS (traditional):		1904-2040
Apple Documentation:		1904-2040
MacOS X source comments:	1970-2040
MacOS X source code:		1970-2038
32-bit Linux:			1902-2038
64-bit Linux:			1970-2106
hfsfuse:			1970-2040
hfsutils (32 bit, old libc)	1902-2038
hfsutils (32 bit, new libc)	1970-2106
hfsutils (64 bit)		1904-2040
hfsplus-utils			1904-2040
hfsexplorer			1904-2040
7-zip				1904-2040

This changes Linux over to mostly the same behavior as described in the
code comment in MacOS X, disallowing all times before 1970 and after
2040, while still allowing times between 2038 and 2040 like most other
implementations do. Most importantly, it means we can have the same
behavior on 32-bit and 64-bit.

Right, the calculation makes no sense, I have no idea how I ever
got there. I was trying to check for the 2040 date, and rearranged my
code multiple times for that. What I probably meant was

     if (ut + 2082844800U > UINT_MAX)

or

    if (ut > UINT_MAX - 2082844800U)

I saw that Andrew had added a fix on top and assumed he got it right, but
upon checking again later I see that it's still there.

No, I should drop that.

I'm definitely fine with it either way. The current approach was based on
the feedback I got from Viacheslav Dubeyko, and on what I found
in the various other implementations. Viacheslav, are you ok with
changing the hfs code back to my original interpretation of the
timestamps, using the 1970..2106 range?

Andrew, can you drop both my hfs/hfsplus patches for now? At
this point it seems better to start from scratch than to fix up the
bugs individually.
