[issue31772] SourceLoader uses stale bytecode in case of equal mtime seconds

[Nick Coghlan]

Aye, I think that check would make the most sense, since the bytecode invalidation check is "_r_long(raw_timestamp) != source_mtime" (to allow for things like version control operations that send source timestamps backwards).

A test for that could then just mock time.time() to make sure it returned  a time matching the source mtime, and checked that the bytecode wasn't written.
