Make the build reproduceable #3

Description

@N-R-K

If you invoke the scripts with the same input then you should get the same output more or less. However, the output isn't bit by bit identical - which can be verified by running something like sha512sum on two separately generated font (with the same input).

I haven't investigated it yet, but I suspect this is probably due to some sort of timestamp issue (e.g fontforge adding a "build timestamp" somewhere). This is not that big of a deal as it doesn't hamper usability of the fonts, but it would be nice to have the script generate bit by bit identical output given the exact input.
