Set downloaded file's time stamp from last-modified header

This file stamp setting is very relaxed. If there's any problem
along the way (no last-modified header, bad time string format,
no time set privileges,...) or if nothing is downloaded (e.g. using
resumed download but the file was already complete) then nothing
is done.
