Summary:                    Add timestamp in seconds starts at the Unix Epoch on
January 1st, 1970 at UTC.
Description: 
It would be great to add this small feature, it is often used (by me) for easy
remember the compilation time (while making a build).

I propose:
string(TIMESTAMP "%e" [<format string>] [UTC])

It will return:
1415525945
