It is deterministic if the user's timezone remains the same.  You could
just outlaw "-rtc base=localtime".

Also, if you choose to record the output of qemu_get_timedate(), you
have to do the same for qemu_timedate_diff().  Switching
qemu_timedate_diff to use QEMU_CLOCK_HOST would also work for
qemu_timedate_diff().
