For the output, I think we should make use of html5's <time> element. It has
the semantics for this, it's got a datetime="" attribute for the machine
readable format, and it was pretty much invented for precisely this kind of
purpose. (Well that, and maybe also letting JS create a countdown to that time)

Relevant bug 32545. I added it as a dependency.
The easiest way to start this is probably to add support for <time> to
WikiText. Then implement client side scripts that do things to <time>. And then
start adding special WikiText syntaxes for signatures and other special cases
we have.
