configurable "file was changed while we backed it up" #8958

@ThomasWaldmann

Description

@ThomasWaldmann

Currently, borg uses the ctime timestamp to detect whether a file was changed while it was being backed up.

There are filesystems where this does not work, e.g. the fs implemented by OneDrive on macOS. See #8676.

So, using ctime could be the default and mtime could be requested by a cli option like --file-changed=mtime.
