Bug#949817: shotcut: please make the build reproducible

Source: shotcut
Version: 19.12.31-1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0] we noticed that
shotcut could not be built reproducibly.

This is because it uses the current build date for the SHOTCUT_VERSION
variable. A patch is attached that bases this value on
SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH [1] instead.
