Description
Explorer should show `mtime` and `mode` when present in `dag-pb`, to make it easy to spot difference in optional metadata.
Right now two CIDs can have the same files but different `mtime`/`mode` and Explorer does not show any hint what is different between them. We need to decide how to present those additional (optional/implicit) attributes.
