oeqa/runtime/date: stop systemd-timesyncd during test

There's a race between systemd-timesyncd manipulating the system time (with NTP
lookups) and the test case's time manipulation.  Prevent this by stopping
systemd-timesyncd for the duration of the test case.

Thanks to Khem Raj for root-causing this.
