minicoredumper: fix 2038 year problem in timestamp handling

The minicoredumper has multiple 2038 year problems where 'long' type
variables and strtol() function calls cause overflow on 32-bit systems
when handling timestamps after 2038-01-19.

This leads to incorrect timestamp formatting in core dump directory
names (e.g., sleep40s.20380119.031407+0000.598).

Fix by changing 'long timestamp' to 'time_t timestamp' and replacing
strtol() with strtoll() to properly handle 64-bit timestamps on
32-bit systems.

+Subject: [PATCH] Fix 2038 year problem in timestamp handling
+
+The minicoredumper uses 'long' type for timestamp which causes
+overflow on 32-bit systems after 2038-01-19. This leads to
+incorrect timestamp formatting in core dump directory names.
+
+Change timestamp variable from 'long' to 'time_t' and use
+'strtoll' instead of 'strtol' to handle 64-bit timestamps
+properly on 32-bit systems.
