dev-perl/mime-construct: add "Date" field to generated messages

[maciejsszmigiero]

Currently, mime-construct does not include the "Date" field in generated
messages.

The "Date" field is required according to the RFC 5322 and not every MTA or
SMTP client adds it when it is missing (for example mail-mta/msmtp does not
do it).

Mail clients often timestamp messages lacking this field as either
01.01.1970 or a date the message was first seen by a particular client
rather than as an actual posting date.

This issue was reported upstream a year ago but there was no response - the
software had last release in 2010 so it is probably no longer maintained.

That's why we have to add the missing field ourselves.

What's the point of the eutils inherit?

@kentfredric:

What's the point of the eutils inherit?

That was a leftover from an older ebuild version, which used "epatch" to apply this patch.
But you are right - EAPI 6 "PATCHES" variable don't need "eutils" inherit so removed it now.

[kentfredric]

EAPI5 didn't need it for perl-module.eclass either :)

perl-module_src_prepare() {
        debug-print-function $FUNCNAME "$@"

        if [[ ${EAPI:-0} == 5 ]] ; then
                [[ ${PATCHES[@]} ]] && epatch "${PATCHES[@]}"
                debug-print "$FUNCNAME: applying user patches"
                epatch_user
        else
                default
        fi

But otherwise this looks good to me.
