Add standalone set_mtime_from_metadata.py utility

Extracted the mtime-stamping logic added to concat_live_clips.py into
its own dependency-free script (just needs ffprobe), so it can be run
against any video file -- not just Live Photo clips -- to fix a
mismatched filesystem mtime for tools like Synology Photos that sort
videos by mtime instead of parsing embedded metadata.

+"""Set a video file's filesystem modification time to match its embedded
+creation-time metadata.
+
+Some tools (e.g. Synology Photos, for videos) sort/date by filesystem mtime
+instead of parsing embedded video metadata, so a video with correct
+metadata but a wrong mtime (common after copying, downloading, or exporting
+a file) can show up filed under the wrong date. This resets mtime (and
+atime) to match the video's own embedded creation time.
+
+Usage:
+    ./set_mtime_from_metadata.py video1.mov video2.mp4 ...
+    ./set_mtime_from_metadata.py --dry-run *.mov
+
+Requirements:
+    - ffprobe on PATH
