[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#925191: toil: please make the build reproducible

Source: toil
Version: 3.18.0-2
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

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

This is because it embeds the current builddate via Python's
`datetime.datetime.utcnow().year`.

Patch attached.
