[Reproducible-builds] Bug#795392: blkreplay: please make the build reproducible

Hi,

While working on the "reproducible builds" effort [1], we have noticed
that blkreplay could not be built reproducibly.

The attached patch fixes the timezone in the date from the man pages to
UTC. Once applied, blkreplay can be built reproducibly in our current
experimental framework.
