ghostscript: support SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH for reproducible builds
Without this patch, it is impossible to generate PDF documents in a reproducible way using Ghostscript, as CreationDate and ModDate are included in the PDF, which are based on the current time. I ran into this problem while using the LATEX command `\includegraphics` with an `.eps` graphic.
The Ghostscript developers are not interested in fixing this and rejected the patch, see https://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=696765#c28.
[Debian carries the same patch](https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=794004), as does [Arch Linux](https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/ghostscript/-/commit/426e6bf6f290c1acf1816c032c630d921b626c95).
