Remove sources of non-determinism from our image

Make our container image more reproducible, by changing the following in
our Dockerfile:
1. Touch `/etc/apt/sources.list` with a UTC timestamp. Else, builds on
   different countries (!?) may result to different Unix epochs for the
   same date, and therefore different modification time for the
   file.
2. Turn the third column of `/etc/shadow` (date of last password change)
   for the `dangerzone` user into a constant number.
3. Fix r-s file permissions in some copied files, due to inconsistent
   COPY behavior in containerized vs non-containerized Buildkit. This
   requires creating a full file hierarchy in a separate directory (see
   new_root/).
4. Set a specific modification time for the entrypoint script, because
   rewrite-timestamp=true does not overwrite it.
