Files generated by texi2html often embed the build user and build date.

The attached patch removes the code which embeds the build date and
build user in order to achieve reproducible builds for the texi2html
package itself, as well as several other packages identified by the
reproducible builds project:

  https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/issues/unstable/texi2html_captures_users_gecos_issue.html

Maybe additional packages would benefit from this patch as well.


Unfortunately, texi2html appears dead upstream, so I'm not sure there's
anywhere to forward this patch to.


live well,
