imbue datetime parsing with C.UTF-8 locale
Rewritten in 9febc2b238e1e322dce1f94ecbed46d595893b52 for c++ locales usage and rewritten again in 1d742e01470bba27715a8191c50adde4b39c2f19 to avoid a currently present stdlibc++6 bug in the std::get_time implementation. The later implementation uses still stringstreams for parsing, but forgot to explicitly reset the locale to something sane (for parsing english dates that is), so date and especially the parsing of a number is depending on the locale. Turns out, the French (among others) format their numbers with space as thousand separator so for some reason the stdlibc++6 thinks its a good idea to interpret the entire datetime string as a single number instead of realizing that in "25 Jun …" the later parts can't reasonably be part of that number even through there are spaces there… Workaround is hence: LC_NUMERIC=C.UTF-8 Closes: 828011 (cherry picked from commit 3bdff17c894d0c3d0f813d358fc45d7a263f3552)
