    date(1): Fix the default format.
    
    The correct format string for national representation of date(1)'s default
    output is "date_fmt" (see /usr/src/share/timedef/*), which is not returned
    by any standard nl_langinfo() constant. Previously, we defined our own
    _DATE_FMT constant and handled it as an extension of nl_langinfo().
    
    The locale upgrade removed nl_langinfo()'s _DATE_FMT handling and at the
    same time brought in a change that causes "date_fmt" to be returned when
    using "%+" as strftime()'s format.
    
    That means, a nl_langinfo() call in date(1) is no longer needed, even
    wrong (there is no constant returning the representation date(1) needs),
    since strftime() can handle it all by itself directly and we can just use
    "%+", like FreeBSD does, too.
