tst: Provide test for ctime
Commit Message
This change adds new test to assess ctime's functionality.
To be more specific - following use cases are checked:
- Pass time_t value as 0 to check if epoch time is converted
- Pass time_t as max value for 32 bit systems
- Pass time_t as the first value after Y2038 threshold

I think the test needs to set the time zone.
Thanks,
Florian

It works as a standalone test in my local test bench. Is it by chance
(that the tz was set correctly earlier)?
There are also no issues when I run code in this patch in the glibc
test suite:

The test wrappers do not set TZ, so you end up with whatever TZ points
to, or the system is configured with via /etc/localtime. ctime is
specified to use local time, not UTC.

I think that I got your point. Do you propose to use the same code as
in ./time/tst-y2039.c test?
In my use case I do use cross-test-ssh.sh script to execute this test.
It would require to set TZ on the remote test machine (Vexpress
CortexA9) - i.e. just modify the script to pass extra env (TZ) only for
this particular test.
Would it be OK, to leave things as they are now? Or do you perceive any
thread with such approach?

Yes, please use setenv or putenv.
Thanks,
