libfetchers/path: set `lastModified` to path's mtime
When importing e.g. a local `nixpkgs` in a flake to test a change like { inputs.nixpkgs.url = path:/home/ma27/Projects/nixpkgs; outputs = /* ... */ } then the input is missing a `lastModified`-field that's e.g. used in `nixpkgs.lib.nixosSystem`. Due to the missing `lastMoified`-field, the mtime is set to 19700101: result -> /nix/store/b7dg1lmmsill2rsgyv2w7b6cnmixkvc1-nixos-system-nixos-22.05.19700101.dirty With this change, the `path`-fetcher now sets a `lastModified` attribute to the `mtime` just like it's the case in the `tarball`-fetcher already. When building NixOS systems with `nixpkgs` being a `path`-input and this patch, the output-path now looks like this: result -> /nix/store/ld2qf9c1s98dxmiwcaq5vn9k5ylzrm1s-nixos-system-nixos-22.05.20220217.dirty
