Hi,

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

This is because debian/rules calls rdfind, which, by default, generates
a nondeterminstic results.txt file that then gets shipped with the binary
.deb.

Patch attached that disables generation of this file.
