[issue2551396] Use of os.path.stat.ST_MTIME in python 3.13 crashes roundup on windows

New submission from John Rouillard:

On IRC Randy reported a crash with Roundup 2.4 running under windows Python 3.13.

Around 15:08.21 a fix was proposed (with Bitdancer's help):

  add "import stat" at top of engine_zopetal.py
  then change "os.path.stat.ST_MTIME" to stat.ST_MTIME

It looks like os.path.stat was removed as part of the windows build somehow.
Bitdancer reported that it did work with Python 3.13 on Unix, which explains
why CI didn't catch this.

Possible bug in ntpath module? Consider checking/submitting upstream.

Randy reported that the fix worked around 15:54.

for details.
