DRA helper: support dropped fields and TimeAdded defaults

Both the new DeviceTaint.TimeAdded and dropped fields when
the DRADeviceTaints feature is disabled confused the ResourceSlice
controller because what is stored and sent back can be different
from what the controller wants to store.

It's now more lenient regarding TimeAdded (doesn't need to be exact because of
rounding during serialization, only having a value on the server is okay)
and dropped fields (doesn't try to store them again). It also preserves
a server-side TimeAdded when updating slices.
