    RedHat: Set source_date_epoch to the current system time
    
    Modern versions of rpmbuild (since 2016) support reproducible builds by
    extracting the timestamp of the last entry of the changelog to use as a
    build timestamp, called `source_date_epoch`. The `source_date_epoch`
    timestamp is used to clamp the modification times of the files generated
    (instead of the current system time), to set timestamps in the package
    metadata (e.g., BUILDTIME), and to set the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment
    variable during the build.  The SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment variable is
    honored by the OpenAFS build system by embedding a timestamp in the
    version string displayed by `rxdebug -version`.
    
    Extracting the `source_date_epoch` timestamp from the %changelog works
    well for downstream packaging, but is not ideal for our in-tree spec
    file. Since this is used for development and as a reference for
    packagers, the %changelog is not updated for each release. As a result,
    the packages built with the in-tree spec file contain very old build
    dates.
    
    This change modifies our in-tree spec file to disable the default
    behavior of extracting the `source_date_epoch` timestamp from the
    changelog. Instead, set the `source_date_epoch` to the current system
    time by default. Support is also added to allow the builder to specify
    the `source_date_epoch` on the command line or in a macro file (e.g.,
    ~/.rpmmacros).
    
    For example, to specify the timestamp from a tag name:
    
        $ rpmbuild --define "source_date_epoch $(git log -1 --format=%ct openafs-stable-1_9_3pre1)" ...
    
    To specify the timestamp from the mtime of a file:
    
        $ rpmbuild --define "source_date_epoch $(date +%s -r path/to/filename)" ...
    
    Include a comment to encourage downstream packagers to set the
    `source_date_epoch_from_changelog` to 1 and update the %changelog on each
    release.
