time_stats(): use an existing attribute if available

Gauvain Pocentek · Gauvain Pocentek · commit f2223e2397ae · 2018-05-30T20:24:57.000+02:00
A time_stats attribute is returned by GitLab when fetching issues and merge requests (on reasonably recent GitLab versions). Use this info instead of making a new API call if possible. Fixes python-gitlab#510
