[Reproducible-builds] Bug#780955: openssl: please make the build reproducible

Source: openssl

Hi,

I noticed that the package openssl[1] could not be build reproducibly.

The attached patch modifies the crypto/Makefile and util/mkbuildinf.pl
so that the first can pass a fixed date to the later, avoiding inserting
the localtime into the build. debian/rules has also been modified to
export a variable containing the date of the last changelog, to be used
as a timestamp.
