To get reproducible results when testing incremental backups, files contained in a backup should not have the same timestamp (at second resolution) as the backup itself. If they do, those files will also be included in the incremental backup, and this will likely cause issues in the expected output of the test. This patch adds a sleep to test 024 prior to doing the level 0 backup. The other incremental tests already include similar delays.
