Allow to override build date with SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH
in order to make builds reproducible.
See https://reproducible-builds.org/ for why this is good
and https://reproducible-builds.org/specs/source-date-epoch/
for the definition of this variable.

Note: This date call is designed to work with different flavors
of date (GNU, BSD and others).
If only GNU (Linux) support is needed, the patch can be simplified.

This re-adds the patch from #195 to the release branch
after it was accidentally lost
in commit 7045475 by @bergeraaron

This looks to be in conflict with existing changes in makefile.in which already define source date (and this actual pull req tries to revert a bunch of other stuff so i can't pull it directly anyhow); not sure how this differs from what's already there tho.

You are probably looking at the master version, which got this already via #195 but this PR is targeted at the kismet-2020-04 branch where the change was accidentally lost and should be re-added.
