Update the "check_parse" test helper to pay attention to the
REQUIRE_64BIT_TIME variable, which can be set to the HAVE_64BIT_TIME
prerequisite so that a parse test can be skipped on 32-bit systems.
This will be used in the next step to skip tests for timestamps near
the end of year 2099, as 32-bit systems will not be able to express
a timestamp beyond 2038 anyway.
