Bug#1056118: radsecproxy: please make the build reproducible

[Chris Lamb]

Source: radsecproxy
Version: 1.10.0-1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

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

This was because it embedded the current build date in the manual
pages. A patch is attached that seeds this from SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH
(if available).
