Subject: [PATCH] build: Build-Datum zusammen mit der Version bei jedem Build
 erzeugen
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

NINLIGHT_BUILD_DATE entstand als string(TIMESTAMP) zur Konfigurationszeit,
während die Version seit bf8f76e bei jedem Build neu geschrieben wird -
system/info.build_date konnte dadurch tagealt sein. Das Datum wandert in
cmake/write_version.cmake und damit in denselben generierten Header wie die
Version.
