settime functions support FAKETIME_UPDATE_TIMESTAMP_FILE (for #239).
When the environment variable FAKETIME_TIMESTAMP_FILE is set, points to a writeable (creatable) custom config file and the environment variable FAKETIME_UPDATE_TIMESTAMP_FILE is "1", then the file also is updated on each call. By this, a common "virtual time" can be shared by several processes, where each can adjust the time for all.
