bfd: Update date in version.in

The build date in bfd/version.h has been automatically updated.

The build date in bfd/version.h was automatically updated from 20260519 to 20260520. This change is part of the regular maintenance to keep version information current.

In Details

This commit updates the BFD_VERSION_DATE macro in bfd/version.h. This macro is used to embed the build date into the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library. This is an automated change. BFD is the library providing a common interface to various object file formats; it is not exposed as an API to end-users.

For Context

This commit updates the build date in a version file for the Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library. The BFD library is a part of the GNU binutils, and it allows programs to work with different types of object files (like executables and libraries) in a uniform way. This change is a routine update to keep the version information accurate.
