When streaming, writing data to a zip file, it sets a timestamp of 1980. I believe this is never the intention so here's a fix to use the current time.

See issue #121402 for details, so this is my suggestion...

I'm also adding a newfile() method that returns a ZipInfo object which inherits the previously configured compression so that the user can pass that object to open() without having to remember to set the compression and _compresslevel/compresslevel atributes again (otherwise the previously set compression is ignored and the added file is written uncompressed). This is for creating new archives.
