drop direct use of stat syscalls in fchmodat
instead, use the fstatat/stat functions, so that the logic for which syscalls are present and usable is all in fstatat. this results in a slight increase in cost for old kernels on 32-bit archs: now statx will be attempted first rather than just using the legacy time32 syscalls, despite us not caring about timestamps. however, it's not even clear that the legacy syscalls *should* succeed if the timestamps are out of range; arguably they should fail with EOVERFLOW. as such, paying a small cost here on old kernels seems well-motivated. with this change, fchmodat itself is no longer blocking ports to new archs that lack the legacy syscalls.
