package: make APK embedded help gzip reproducible

APK compresses it's helptext using LUA and require `zlib`, which isn't
available on the Buildbots. It thens falls back to `gzip`, which embeds the
MTIME, making the binary itself unreproducible.

This commits adds a downstream patch to run `gzip` with `-n`, setting the time
to 0.
