When built on machines with different timezones, many of the .pdf files
in the graphviz packages embed a different date.

There is already support in the code for using SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH, which
is great!  It also needs pass the "-gmt True" argument when rendering
the time in order to ensure the system timezone doesn't change the
result.

Patch attached which does this.

Thanks!
