Merge lp:~mterry/indicator-datetime/iso8601 into lp:indicator-datetime/13.04

[Michael Terry]

Go back to ISO 8601 dates for the date-picker widget. This way we know how to parse it again when the user manually edits the string.

This fixes issues with manually editing the date field in some locales (like Canada).
