Add default C Preprocessor flags that ensure Y2038 compatible 64 bit
time on 32 bit host applications when glibc is used. Prerequisites
are glibc version 2.34 or newer and Linux kernel version 5.1 or newer.
Example of impact on 32 bit 'qemuarm' machine running
core-image-minimal. Before this change:
root@qemuarm:~# /bin/busybox date
Sun Nov 6 06:09:39 UTC 2022
root@qemuarm:~# /sbin/hwclock.util-linux -w
root@qemuarm:~# /sbin/hwclock.util-linux
2022-11-06 06:09:49.994249+00:00
root@qemuarm:~# /bin/busybox date -s 2040-01-01
date: invalid date '2040-01-01'
root@qemuarm:~# /bin/date.coreutils -s 2040-01-01
Sun Jan 1 00:00:00 UTC 2040
root@qemuarm:~# /sbin/hwclock.util-linux -w
root@qemuarm:~# /sbin/hwclock.util-linux
1931-03-04 06:26:23.000000+00:00
root@qemuarm:~#
After this change:
root@qemuarm:~# /bin/busybox date
Sun Nov 6 06:02:20 UTC 2022
root@qemuarm:~# /sbin/hwclock.util-linux -w
root@qemuarm:~# /sbin/hwclock.util-linux
2022-11-06 06:02:27.989730+00:00
root@qemuarm:~# /bin/busybox date -s 2040-01-01
Sun Jan 1 00:00:00 UTC 2040
root@qemuarm:~# /sbin/hwclock.util-linux -w
root@qemuarm:~# /sbin/hwclock.util-linux
2040-01-01 00:00:20.992954+00:00

>From here on, the adding of new flags can be disabled on recipe or
global level by resetting the value of associated variable containing
the CPPFLAGS specific for 64 bit time
GLIBC_64BIT_TIME_CPPFLAGS = ""
which can be useful e.g. when working around failure to compile a
component due to lack of 64 bit time support on 32 bit build in the
component's source code.
