Samba ctime still reported incorrectly

I did another test of the Samba server ctime bug on Samba master
(4.21.0pre1) and Samba server is still broken in how it reports ctime.
An example scenario is simple, creating a hardlink is supposed to
update ctime on a file (and this works fine to Windows server and
ksmbd etc) but Samba server mistakenly reports ctime as mtime (unless
you mount with the "posix" mount option).  This e.g. breaks xfstest
generic/236 when run to Samba
