Bug#972378: fckit: please make the build (mostly) reproducible

Hi,

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

This is because it embeds the build path in various places, including
in the "--usage" help message. Not sure if the CMake file is even
useful in the binary package, so that might be something to confirm
before patching it.

Anyway, patch attached that makes the build (mostly) reproducible; the
rest of the unreproducibility is due to the Fortran toolchain, such as
assertions in the binary and in dh-fortran-mod (addressed in #965255).
