Bug#820684: fop: please make the build reproducible (username, hostname, timestamps, locale)

Dear Maintainer,

While working on the “reproducible builds” effort [1], we have noticed
that 'fop' could not be built reproducibly.

The attached patch fixes the encoding of documentation files, strips the
timestamp from the fop-ttfreader man page, and removes hostname,
username and OS info from MANIFEST files.
Once applied, fop can be built reproducibly in our current experimental
framework.

Regards,
Alexis Bienvenüe.
