Notes:
1. `%Y`:
[^1]: `%Y`:
Negative years are allowed in formatting but not in parsing.
2. `%C`, `%y`:
[^2]: `%C`, `%y`:
This is floor division, so 100 BCE (year number -99) will print `-1` and `99` respectively.
3. `%U`:
[^3]: `%U`:
Week 1 starts with the first Sunday in that year.
It is possible to have week 0 for days before the first Sunday.
4. `%G`, `%g`, `%V`:
[^4]: `%G`, `%g`, `%V`:
Week 1 is the first week with at least 4 days in that year.
Week 0 does not exist, so this should be used with `%G` or `%g`.
5. `%S`:
[^5]: `%S`:
It accounts for leap seconds, so `60` is possible.
6. `%+`:
Same to `%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%.f%:z`,
i.e. 0, 3, 6 or 9 fractional digits for seconds and colons in the time zone offset.
[^6]: `%+`: Same as `%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%.f%:z`, i.e. 0, 3, 6 or 9 fractional
digits for seconds and colons in the time zone offset.

The typical `strftime` implementations have different (and locale-dependent)
formats for this specifier. While Chrono's format for `%+` is far more
stable, it is best to avoid this specifier if you want to control the exact
output.

7. `%s`:
[^7]: `%s`:
This is not padded and can be negative.
For the purpose of Chrono, it only accounts for non-leap seconds
so it slightly differs from ISO C `strftime` behavior.

The default `%f` is right-aligned and always zero-padded to 9 digits
for the compatibility with glibc and others,
so it always counts the number of nanoseconds since the last whole second.
E.g. 7ms after the last second will print `007000000`,
and parsing `7000000` will yield the same.
<br>
<br>
The variant `%.f` is left-aligned and print 0, 3, 6 or 9 fractional digits
according to the precision.
E.g. 70ms after the last second under `%.f` will print `.070` (note: not `.07`),
and parsing `.07`, `.070000` etc. will yield the same.
Note that they can print or read nothing if the fractional part is zero or
the next character is not `.`.
<br>
<br>
The variant `%.3f`, `%.6f` and `%.9f` are left-aligned and print 3, 6 or 9 fractional digits
according to the number preceding `f`.
E.g. 70ms after the last second under `%.3f` will print `.070` (note: not `.07`),
and parsing `.07`, `.070000` etc. will yield the same.
Note that they can read nothing if the fractional part is zero or
the next character is not `.` however will print with the specified length.

The variant `%3f`, `%6f` and `%9f` are left-aligned and print 3, 6 or 9 fractional digits
according to the number preceding `f`, but without the leading dot.
E.g. 70ms after the last second under `%3f` will print `070` (note: not `07`),
