doc: Replace unreproducible date->string computation.
The date->string computation is unreproducible. A slightly different version of the documentation is built each time. Also, the output of date->string is locale dependent, and does not render correctly in all locales. * doc/user/start.skb (Dynamic Documents)[Simple Computations]: Replace unreproducible date->string computation with a square root computation.
