[poky] [PATCH v2] Make /etc/timestamp usage consistent

Per the previous discussion and bug #265, the use of /etc/timestamp?
is inconsistent:
   * Different scripts format this differently
   * Some places it's /etc/timestamp, others /etc/timestamp2

The attached patch cleans this up.  Also note that I switched to
always keeping the timestamp in UTC.  This is important for systems
without a notion of timezone (typical for those with no hardware
clock where this really matters).  You notice this the most when
the build/development environment is somewhere other than UTC :-)
