#15263: "now" templatetag doesn't accept locale formats, as docs claim

The documentation on the `now` tag claims that it acts like the `date`
filter in accepting "DATE_FORMAT" as a shortcut to the locale's current
date format. However, this is not the case:
{{{
>>> t=Template("""{% now "DATE_FORMAT" %}""")
>>> t.render(Context())
u'WedPMGMTE_February+0000RFebPMGMT'
}}}
Clearly the string is being interpreted as a literal format, instead of
being translated to the locale's date format.
Attached patch fixes this by using the same logic as the `date` filter,
including a regression test, and slightly tweaks the awkward wording in
the docs.
