[S3tools-general] Patch to restore Linux/Unix file Ownership (UID GID) from metadata using sync

[Jim W. <ji...@wr...>]

The following patch seems to work for restoring user id/group id
(ownership) data to files on linux.  As far as I know it is only possible
to use uid/gid to restore file ownership using python.  Change filenames or
cut and paste code as appropriate.

This makes linux full or partial file system recovery using sync command
workable.
