Hi,

Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0] we noticed that
node-marked-man generates manpages that vary depending on the system
timezone. For example, within the tree of src:node-gulp:

  $ dpkg-parsechangelog --show-field=Date
  Wed, 30 Nov 2022 23:28:47 +0100

  $ TZ="/usr/share/zoneinfo/Etc/GMT-14" marked-man --name gulp --date="$(dpkg-parsechangelog --show-field=Date)" docs/CLI.md | head -n1
  .TH "GULP" "1" "December 2022" "4.0.2"

  $ TZ="/usr/share/zoneinfo/Etc/GMT+11" marked-man --name gulp --date="$(dpkg-parsechangelog --show-field=Date)" docs/CLI.md | head -n1
  .TH "GULP" "1" "November 2022" "4.0.2"

This seems to be caused by the use of Date.prototype.toLocaleDateString
in utils.js:

    export function manDate(date) {
      const stamp = parseInt(date);
      if (!Number.isNaN(stamp) && stamp.toString().length == date.length) date = stamp;
      date = new Date(date);
      return date.toLocaleString('en', { month: 'long', year: 'numeric' });
    }

A patch is attached that normalises this to UTC. After this patch is
applied, you get the following:

  $ TZ="/usr/share/zoneinfo/Etc/GMT-14" marked-man --name gulp --date="$(dpkg-parsechangelog --show-field=Date)" docs/CLI.md | head -n1
  .TH "GULP" "1" "November 2022" "4.0.2"

  $ TZ="/usr/share/zoneinfo/Etc/GMT+11" marked-man --name gulp --date="$(dpkg-parsechangelog --show-field=Date)" docs/CLI.md | head -n1
  .TH "GULP" "1" "November 2022" "4.0.2"
