[Reproducible-builds] Bug#782405: wheel: please make the build reproducible

Hi!

While working on Debian's “reproducible builds” effort [1], we have
noticed that wheel doesn't build reproducibly.
It embeds the current date into the manpage.

The attached patch fixes this by using the latest changelog date
as a timestamp that will be embedded.

Regards,
 Reiner
