Using the modification time of the snapshot tarball for computing dist is a bad idea, since it's different on different machines.
For example, the computed date during the `buildSRPMfromSCM` koji task is likely different from the local date when the package was prepared, and so package builds (especially EVRs and changelog entries) are not reproducible.
With this change, the snapshot date is not calculated magically, but the packager has to set "%global date YYYYMMDD" manually. I also adapted the documentation for the macro to reflect that change.
This is related to the following FPC issue: https://pagure.io/packaging-committee/issue/719
This patch adds two additional rpm macros, __brp_mangle_shebangs_exclude_file
and __brp_mangle_shebangs_exclude_from_file, to specify files from which
to read the extended regexps used for excluding shebangs and target
files.
Additionally, this adds documentation in the macros file and
--help/--usage/-?/-h to brp-mangle-shebangs, so that it's possible to
actually discover what the intended behavior is without reading the
script itself.

If %ldconfig is not defined, then "%ldconfig_post/%ldconfig_postun foo"
will expand to " foo" which is breaking packages.
Also now it is possible to move %end into post/postun.

If people choose to use %ldconfig_post/%ldconfig_postun, let them to
deal with %end.

Some people tend to use comments in spec files which adds them into the
scriptlet and we don't want this.

Now it starts requiring bash instead of POSIX-compatible shell, but this
is not a problem since other scripts in here do same.

Introduces __brp_mangle_shebangs_exclude_from and __brp_mangle_shebangs_exclude
* the first allows to explude specific paths from the mangling
* the second allows to exlude specific shebangs
Both are used with `grep -E`. Similar escaping rules as in [1] apply.

With https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Removing_ldconfig_scriptlets
we try to remove ldconfig scriptlets, but it would make every package
look horrible with all those conditionals. So let's just wrap ldconfig
scriptlets into macro so it doesn't look that horrible and error-prone.

If there are unpackaged symlinks, build will fail with unpackaged files.
People can %undefine __brp_ldconfig if they need to and they should make
sure that they call ldconfig themselves.
Right now, script doesn't guide packagers what to do, but it's not
prerequisite.
