[U-Boot] [PATCH 3/3] Set time and umask on fit-dtb.blob to ensure reproducibile builds.

When building compressed (lzop, gzip) fit-dtb.blob images, the
compression tool may embed the time or umask in the image.

Work around this by manually setting the time of the source file using
SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH and a hard-coded 0600 umask.

With gzip, this could be accomplished by using -n/--no-name, but lzop
has no current workaround:
