unix: add Statx on Linux

statx(2) allows to get enhanced file status information (not currently
available through the existing stat syscalls), lightweight stat,
heavyweight stat. The Statx_t type used by Statx has consistent field
sizes on all arches (with year-2038-capable timestamps) and is closer to
the BSD implementation of Stat_t.

See http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/statx.2.html for details. The
syscall was added in Linux kernel 4.11.

See https://github.com/tklauser/statx for an example of how this
function and types can be used to report stat(1)-like file status
information.
