For use in timesyncd we already defined a compile-time "epoch" value, which is based on the mtime of the NEWS file, and specifies a point in time we know lies in the past at runtime. timesyncd uses this to filter out nonsensical timestamp file data, and bump the system clock to a time that is after the build time of systemd. This patch adds similar bumping code to earliest PID 1 initialization, so that the system never continues operation with a clock that is in the 1970ies or even 1930s.
