time: allow +00 as numeric timezone name and GMT offset
A timezone with a zero offset from UTC and without a three-letter abbreviation will have a numeric name in timestamps: "+00". There are currently two of them: $ zdump Atlantic/Azores America/Scoresbysund Atlantic/Azores Wed Aug 22 09:01:05 2018 +00 America/Scoresbysund Wed Aug 22 09:01:05 2018 +00 These two timestamp are rejected by Parse, since it doesn't allow for zero offsets: parsing time "Wed Aug 22 09:01:05 2018 +00": extra text: +00 This change modifies Parse to accept a +00 offset in numeric timezone names. As side effect of this change, Parse also now accepts "GMT+00". It was explicitely disallowed (with a unit test ensuring it got rejected), but the restriction seems incorrect. DATE(1), for example, allows it: $ date --debug --date="2009-01-02 03:04:05 GMT+00" date: parsed date part: (Y-M-D) 2009-01-02 date: parsed time part: 03:04:05 date: parsed zone part: UTC+00 date: input timezone: parsed date/time string (+00) date: using specified time as starting value: '03:04:05' date: starting date/time: '(Y-M-D) 2009-01-02 03:04:05 TZ=+00' date: '(Y-M-D) 2009-01-02 03:04:05 TZ=+00' = 1230865445 epoch-seconds date: timezone: system default date: final: 1230865445.000000000 (epoch-seconds) date: final: (Y-M-D) 2009-01-02 03:04:05 (UTC) date: final: (Y-M-D) 2009-01-02 04:04:05 (UTC+01) Fri 2 Jan 04:04:05 CET 2009 This fixes 2 of 17 time.Parse() failures listed in Issue #26032.
