It would be useful for the file archival to preserve the file's creation, access, and modification times.

There currently is no built-in support for setting these file metadata attributes.

Using the filetime crate to handle reading and setting the file's access and modification times.

Currently there is no function to set a file's creation time, maybe this will be a future feature?

I found this fs::set_permissions function in the std::fs library: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/fs/fn.set_permissions.html

This is handled in ed4173f3dc.
