When running index.sh on OpenBSD, the following error happens for
each item in the news/ directory (output is from "bash -x"):
+ touch -d '4 Jun 2017' news/andrew-robbins-new-maintainer.md
touch: out of range or illegal time specification: YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss[.frac][Z]
This is because OpenBSD's touch(1) requires that the "d" flag's argument
be in ISO 8601 format, that is, "YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss[.frac][Z]". This
could have been dealt with by converting the article date (determined
by "sed -n 3p $f | sed -e 's/^..//g'") to ISO 8601 format, then passing
the date to touch(1). That would have required even more code, so was
discarded as a possible solution.
Instead, we solve this by keeping a MANIFEST file under news/, which
is read to determine (a) which articles should be added to news/index.md,
and (b) in which order. This avoids the need for touch(1) altogether,
finally making the whole libreboot website build properly on OpenBSD.
This also allows a minor simplification in the Makefile.

When running index.sh on OpenBSD, the following error happens for

+ touch -d '4 Jun 2017' news/andrew-robbins-new-maintainer.md
touch: out of range or illegal time specification: YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss[.frac][Z]
This is because OpenBSD's touch(1) requires that the "d" flag's argument
be in ISO 8601 format, that is, "YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss[.frac][Z]". This
could have been dealt with by converting the article date (determined

the date to touch(1). That would have required even more code, so was
discarded as a possible solution.
Instead, this has been solved by prepending the ISO 8601 date to the names
of all news items. This has the benefit of avoiding the need for touch(1)
altogether, as a lexicographic sorting of ISO 8601 dates is the same as
a date-based sorting. In other words, "ls news/*.md" will give a list
of articles sorted by date, which we can then append to news/index.md in
that order.
One downside of this solution is that it introduces the possibility that
the date in the filename (ISO 8601 format) of a news article does not
match the date inside the article (e.g., 1 May 2017). I have not dealt
with this as it remains to be seen whether it will be a problem in
practice.

This is the same idea as 497a49162f7c8b5c1d7c653087b0ac6c8e5765f9.
Without this patch, the following errors occur when running index.sh:
sed: 1: "news/new-mailing-lists. ...: extra characters at the end of n command
sed: 1: "news/andrew-robbins-new ...: extra characters at the end of n command
sed: 1: "news/formalised-structu ...: extra characters at the end of n command
sed: 1: "news/proposal-rejoin-gn ...: extra characters at the end of n command
sed: 1: "news/unity.bare.html": extra characters at the end of n command

This is mainly useful for being able to run these scripts on BSDs.
And for users who use a Bash not installed to /bin.
