Subject: [PATCH 08/10] mkstandalone: add argument --fixed-time to override
 mtime of files

mkstandalone adds several files to an archive. Doing this it uses the
mtime to give these files a timestamp.
--fixed-time <TIME_EPOCH> overrides these timestamps with a given.

Replacing all timestamps with a specific one is required
to get reproducible builds. See source epoch specification of
reproducible-builds.org
