Bug#964768: libtpms: please make the build reproducible

Source: libtpms
Version: 0.8.0~dev1-1.1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

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

This is because the 0003-set-man-page-date-to-last-changelog had an
incorrect path the Debian change which was leading to:

    dpkg-parsechangelog: error: cannot open file changelog: No such file or directory

… in the logs.

Patch attached that sets the path correctly, but a superior approach
would be to parse SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH in the patch instead of manually
parsing debian/changelog.
