Implement checked_add_duration for SystemTime
[Original discussion on the rust user forum](https://users.rust-lang.org/t/std-systemtime-misses-a-checked-add-function/21785)
Since `SystemTime` is opaque there is no way to check if the result of an addition will be in bounds. That makes the `Add<Duration>` trait completely unusable with untrusted data. This is a big problem because adding a `Duration` to `UNIX_EPOCH` is the standard way of constructing a `SystemTime` from a unix timestamp.
This PR implements `checked_add_duration(&self, &Duration) -> Option<SystemTime>` for `std::time::SystemTime` and as a prerequisite also for all platform specific time structs. This also led to the refactoring of many `add_duration(&self, &Duration) -> SystemTime` functions to avoid redundancy (they now unwrap the result of `checked_add_duration`).
Some basic unit tests for the newly introduced function were added too.
I wasn't sure which stabilization attribute to add to the newly introduced function, so I just chose `#[stable(feature = "time_checked_add", since = "1.32.0")]` for now to make it compile. Please let me know how I should change it or if I violated any other conventions.
P.S.: I could only test on Linux so far, so I don't necessarily expect it to compile for all platforms.

Uses the same wording as [`src/libstd/sys/windows/time.rs`][1].

Closes #46670.

Avoid unchecked cast from `u64` to `i64`. Use `try_into()` for checked
cast. (On Unix, cast to `time_t` instead of `i64`.)
