[Python-modules-team] Bug#831779: python-docutils: please make the output of rst2man reproducible

The reverted patch was buggy, incomplete and did not solve the problem of
non-reproducible builds due to timestamps in rst2man output.

Debian could solve the problem with a patch setting the config value::

  # Disables datestamp; equivalent to --no-datestamp:
  datestamp:
  
in /etc/docutils.conf or wait for a consensus among Docutils developers
after raising the issue on the docutils-devel list.
