Michael Witten a0c811713d strftime.3: Move 822-compliant date format example to EXAMPLES section
The RFC 822-compliant date format given in the description
of `%z' is now moved to the `EXAMPLES' section (note: `EXAMPLE'
has been renamed `EXAMPLES').

Furthermore, that format example is now actually
RFC 822-compliant (using `%y' instead of `%Y') and has been
qualified as being correct only when in the context of at least
an English locale. Also, `%T' is used in place of `%H:%M:%S'.

For completeness, an RFC 2822-compliant format example has been
similarly added.

All definitions of the Epoch have been refactored to the following:

  1970-01-01 00:00:00 +0000 (UTC)

That form is more consistent, logical, precise, and internationally
recognizable than the other variants.

Also, some wording has been altered as well.
