TASK DESCRIPTION
  Example: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q20018609 contains (valid) qualifiers 
with "900 million years BCE //Gregorian//. In such cases the added "Gregorian" 
is almost totally pointless. It does not add any information that's useful. All 
you can learn from that is how the value is stored internally.
  
  This is very similar to a TimeValue with precision month, where we do not 
show the day, even if it exists internally. Displaying it would not add useful 
information, only confusion.
  
  I propose to almost revert the formatter back to how it was originally: Stop 
showing any calendar model indicator when the precision is so rough that it 
does not make a difference anyway. Originally the formatter did that starting 
from month precision. I think this was to early. Something that happened in 
1499 //Julian// may have happened in 1500 //Gregorian//. I suggest to do that 
stating at precision 10 years (that's constant `8`).
