The parser now accepts ISO 8601 date-time strings with "T" as the
separator. It has long parsed dates like "2004-02-29 16:21:42"
with a space between the date and time strings. Now it also parses
"2004-02-29T16:21:42" and fractional-second and time-zone-annotated
variants like "2004-02-29T16:21:42.333-07:00"
* lib/parse-datetime.y: Parse ISO 8601 extended date and time
of day representation using the 'T' separator character.
* doc/parse-datetime.texi (General date syntax): replace use of
deprecated --iso-8601 option with --rfc-3339 in example of date
command output formats that can be parsed.
* tests/test-parse-datetime.c (tm_diff): New function, taken from
lib/parse-datetime.y.
(gmt_offset): New function.
(main): Add additional test cases to validate ISO8601 extended
date and time of day format parsing.
* doc/parse-datetime.texi (Authors of parse_datetime): Better
documentation of this function's history and alternatives.

* doc/parse-datetime.texi (Authors of parse_datetime): Call it
parse_datetime, not get_date. Mention the renaming.
* lib/parse-datetime.y: Call it parse_datetime, not getdate,
in comments.
* m4/bison.m4: Likewise.
