Record TIMESTAMP in make makesum
This is intended to support development and prototyping for ports reproducible build efforts which require some concept of a "last updated" time. It is being committed now so that timestamp entries will be populated "for free" as port distfiles updates happen. Submitted by: bapt (earlier version) Reviewed by: bapt, bdrewery Approved by: portmgr (bdrewery) Differential Revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D6031

+ "make makesum" now writes the current timestamp to distinfo when it is run.
+ This is done to support development and prototyping efforts for reproducible
+ package builds, which require some concept of a "last updated" time.
+
+ The TIMESTAMP can currently be ignored for ports that have no distinfo, and
+ for updates done without using "make makesum."
