Test whether copy of directory will copy the mtime.

* Test:

  1. Create and sync a repository.
  2. Publish the repository with the option `generate_sqlite` as True.
  3. Verify the `mtime` for the sqlite files.
  4. Upload a RPM package to the repository.
  5. Sync the repository again.
  6. Assert that `mtime` for old sqlite files remain the same.

Closes: pulp#720
