Thanks to Georg Sauthoff for feedback

- -------

- - fixed message displayed when reading old archives
- - fixed bug that avoided dar-2.5.x code to read old archive format when
  special allocation was set (by defaut) at compilation time
- - disabling special-alloc by default reducing memory footprint
- - fixed error in FAQ about the way ctime/atime/mtime are modified during
  normal operating system life.
- - new implementation of class datetime with better memory footprint
- - avoding storing sub-microsecond part of date to preserve limitint
  ability to store large dates
- - moving field cat_inode::last_cha from pointer-to-field to plain field
  of the class, this slightly reduce catalogue memory footprint.
- - fixing bug in the returned exit status when dar failed executing DUC
  command due to system error (now returning the expected code 6 in that
  case too)
