nicer date format and support for SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH in LXC_GENERATE_DATE
Using $(date) for LXC_GENERATE_DATE has various flaws:
* formating depends on the locale of the system we execute configure on
* the output is not really a date but more a timestamp
Let's use $(date --utc '+%Y-%m-%d') instead.
While at it, also support SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH [1] to make the build
reproducible
