Add DST flag to timestamp in Perfstat files

A small but helpful cleanup change: Could you please add the Daylight Savings Time (DST) Flag to the Timestamp in all 4 performance statistics filetypes (Nv, Nm, Nd, Nn)? End of October countries like Germany (TimeZone 360) have a negative clock change and due to this always see the same Timestamps for two real hours twice and have no chance to automatically distinguish between both.
