sftp should include seconds in directory listings

Bug Description

Directory listings from the "ls -l" command in sftp are only granular for mtime to the minute and not the second. When using sftp clients that support uploading only changed files based on mtime this causes the same file to appear different.

sftp should provide the complete timestamp and not just hh:mm.

[rbeede@ubuntu:/home/rbeede] $ ssh -V
OpenSSH_6.1p1 Debian-4, OpenSSL 1.0.1c 10 May 2012

[rbeede@ubuntu:/home/rbeede] $ uname -a
Linux ubuntu 3.8.0-19-generic #30-Ubuntu SMP Wed May 1 16:35:23 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

This may belong to openssh-server or openssh-client.
