commit: print "Date" line when the user has set date

When we make a commit and the author is not the same as the
committer (e.g., because you used "-c $commit" or
"--author=$somebody"), we print the author's name and email
in both the commit-message template and as part of the
commit summary. This is a safety check to give the user a
chance to confirm that we are doing what they expect.

This patch brings the same safety for the "date" field,
which may be set by "-c" or by using "--date".  Note that we
explicitly do not set it for $GIT_AUTHOR_DATE, as it is
probably not of interest when "git commit" is being fed its
parameters by a script.
