Bug#1017421: fltk1.3: reproducible builds: locale-specific month embedded in fltk.pdf

The month embedded in the TODAY variable is translatable, and thus
changes depending on the locale of the build environment.

The attached patch updates debian/patches/debian-changes to use a
numeric date, which should be independent of locale.

It is unclear if this alone will make fltk1.3 build reproducibly, but it
should reduce the differences even if it does not solve all issues.

Thanks for maintaining fltk1.3!

live well,
