New submission from David Wolever:

The current strftime documentation isn't very helpful. It doesn't have 
examples, and the ordering is unhelpful.

I've also moved some format-specific notes into the notes below the 
format-string-table, because the format string table is what 98%* of people 
care about.

TODO before this can be merged:
- Clean up note order
- Check that it works with the Python 3 docs

*: based on a sample size of 1
