[Reproducible-builds] Bug#789843: tex4ht: please consider not printing timestamps in html output by default

Hello,

While working on the “reproducible builds” effort [1], we have noticed
that the packages freecol, libgfshare, dbus-java, logol, and  polybori
could not be built reproducibly because tex4ht embeds timestamps in its
html output by default.

The attached patch creates a command line argument `timestamp` which if
used will allow timestamps to be printed in the html output.  Otherwise
by default no timestamps will be printed in the html output.


Cheers, akira
