Bug #7715
loader binaries causes wsdiff false positives
100%
Description
When the illumos-gate is built twice in a row the gptzfsboot, pxeboot, and zfsloader binaries differs, so wsdiff(1onbld) reports them.
The differences are these:

The vers.c file is updated with the current timestamp on every build by usr/src/boot/sys/boot/common/newvers.sh.

I was thinking when someone will step on this issue. For loaders its about changes:
https://reviews.freebsd.org/D8823
https://reviews.freebsd.org/D8842
for boot1 we need a bit different solution. The problem there is that it is nice to have way to identify boot1 binary, for this purpose, we have installboot -i, and so the easy path was just to embed the build date, which will break repeatable build. Better way is to embed the version info without date, so we get repeatable build within same version. So, I'll add subtask for boot1 versioning.
