Ubuntu 4.4 kernel got the backported kernel patch (b3b4283) for
syscalls/utimensat01 since 4.4.0-48.69, therefore it will return
EPERM instead of EACCES.

Without this fix, the test will fail on Ubuntu 4.4 kernel with:
  FAIL: 18: utimensat() failed with incorrect error, expected EACCES: EPERM (1)
  FAIL: 19: utimensat() failed with incorrect error, expected EACCES: EPERM (1)

Add Ubuntu kernel version comparison to fix this.

Also add support to get the distname for different OS by parsing ID=
from /etc/os-release in tst_kvcmp_distname()
