The time_t type is part of the user interface and not always the
same, with the move to 64-bit timestamps and the difference between
architectures.

Make the quota format definition independent of this type and use
a basic type of the same length. Make it unsigned in the process
to keep the v1 format working until year 2106 instead of 2038
on 32-bit architectures.

Hopefully, everybody has already moved to a newer format long
ago (v2 was introduced with linux-2.4), but it's hard to be sure.

What's worse, time_t is actually a part of on-disk format for this ancient
quota format making format incompatible between 32-bit and 64-bit
systems... Anyway, your patch looks good, I'll add it to my tree (speak up
if you want to merge it yourself due to something depending on it).
