[bug#72244] [PATCH core-updates] gnu: nss: Run tests with datefudge on 32bit systems.

[Christopher Baines]

As libfaketime has issues with 64bit time on 32bit systems.

* gnu/packages/nss.scm (nss)[arguments]: Tweak the gtests.sh script and use
datefudge rather than faketime on 32bit systems.
[native-inputs]: Use datetime rather than libfaketime on 32bit systems.

I pushed a variant as 21fe1e077aa77488bd413ef3255973c60d7468fe, as
discussed in <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/72239>.
