Automatic date update in version.in

The build date in bfd/version.h was automatically updated.

The build date in bfd/version.h was automatically updated from 20260426 to 20260427. This is a routine update to reflect the current date in the build process. This date is typically not included in release version strings.

In Details

This commit updates the BFD_VERSION_DATE macro in bfd/version.h. This date is used during the BFD build process but is not included in release versions or sonames. It's an automated change, likely triggered by a build system.

For Context

The Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library is used by binutils to handle various object file formats. The version.h file contains version information for the library. This commit simply updates the build date within that file, which is a routine part of the build process and does not affect the functionality of the library itself.
