Is there any guidance about when to use calibrationDateTimeTag in
addition to the header? For g-c-m we write the profile after
calibration, but for the generated print profiles maybe it makes sense
to set calt.

FWIW, I'd rather keep the profile creation time correct, rather than
creating profiles that are identical across each run. colord uses the
profile id (or md5 of the header) for basically everything so the
daemon doesn't even care about the date/time.
