/** DateTime - A structure representing Date and Time.
 * DateTime is a structure that combines a Gregorian date and time into a
 * single structure. It provides many conversion and methods to manipulate
 * dates and times. Time precision is provided down to microseconds and the
 * time can range (proleptically) from 0001-01-01 00:00:00 to 9999-12-31
 * 23:59:59.999999. DateTime follows POSIX time in the sense that it is
 * oblivious to leap seconds.
 *
 * DateTime is an immutable object; once it has been created it cannot be
 * modified further. All modifiers will create a new DateTime. Nearly all such
 * functions can fail due to the date or time going out of range, in which case
 * <tt>0</tt> will be returned.
 *
 * Many parts of the API may produce non-obvious results. As an example, adding
 * two months to January 31st will yield March 31st whereas adding one month
 * and then one month again will yield either March 28th or March 29th. Also
 * note that adding 24 hours is not always the same as adding one day (since
 * days containing daylight savings time transitions are either 23 or 25 hours
 * in length).

   * output exactly.
   * 
   * The following format specifiers are supported:
   * 
   * - \\%a: the abbreviated weekday name according to the current locale
   * - \\%A: the full weekday name according to the current locale
   * - \\%b: the abbreviated month name according to the current locale
   * - \\%B: the full month name according to the current locale
   * - \\%c: the preferred date and time representation for the current locale
   * - \\%C: the century number (year/100) as a 2-digit integer (00-99)
   * - \\%d: the day of the month as a decimal number (range 01 to 31)
   * - \\%e: the day of the month as a decimal number (range  1 to 31)
   * - \\%F: equivalent to `%Y-%m-%d` (the ISO 8601 date format)
   * - \\%g: the last two digits of the ISO 8601 week-based year as a
   * decimal number (00-99). This works well with \\%V and \\%u.
   * - \\%G: the ISO 8601 week-based year as a decimal number. This works
   * well with \\%V and \\%u.
   * - \\%h: equivalent to \\%b
   * - \\%H: the hour as a decimal number using a 24-hour clock (range 00 to 23)
   * - \\%I: the hour as a decimal number using a 12-hour clock (range 01 to 12)
   * - \\%j: the day of the year as a decimal number (range 001 to 366)
   * - \\%k: the hour (24-hour clock) as a decimal number (range 0 to 23);
   * single digits are preceded by a blank
   * - \\%l: the hour (12-hour clock) as a decimal number (range 1 to 12);
   * single digits are preceded by a blank
   * - \\%m: the month as a decimal number (range 01 to 12)
   * - \\%M: the minute as a decimal number (range 00 to 59)
   * - \\%p: either "AM" or "PM" according to the given time value, or the
   * corresponding  strings for the current locale.  Noon is treated as
   * "PM" and midnight as "AM".
   * - \\%P: like \\%p but lowercase: "am" or "pm" or a corresponding string for
   * the current locale
   * - \\%r: the time in a.m. or p.m. notation
   * - \\%R: the time in 24-hour notation (\\%H:\\%M)
   * - \\%s: the number of seconds since the Epoch, that is, since 1970-01-01
   * 00:00:00 UTC
   * - \\%S: the second as a decimal number (range 00 to 60)
   * - \\%t: a tab character
   * - \\%T: the time in 24-hour notation with seconds (\\%H:\\%M:\\%S)
   * - \\%u: the ISO 8601 standard day of the week as a decimal, range 1 to 7,
   * Monday being 1. This works well with \\%G and \\%V.
   * - \\%V: the ISO 8601 standard week number of the current year as a decimal
   * number, range 01 to 53, where week 1 is the first week that has at
   * least 4 days in the new year. See g_date_time_get_week_of_year().
   * This works well with \\%G and \\%u.
   * - \\%w: the day of the week as a decimal, range 0 to 6, Sunday being 0.
   * This is not the ISO 8601 standard format -- use \\%u instead.
   * - \\%x: the preferred date representation for the current locale without
   * the time
   * - \\%X: the preferred time representation for the current locale without
   * the date
   * - \\%y: the year as a decimal number without the century
   * - \\%Y: the year as a decimal number including the century
   * - \\%z: the time zone as an offset from UTC (+hhmm)
   * - \\%:z: the time zone as an offset from UTC (+hh:mm).
   * This is a gnulib strftime() extension. Since: 2.38
   * - \\%::z: the time zone as an offset from UTC (+hh:mm:ss). This is a
   * gnulib strftime() extension. Since: 2.38
   * - \\%:::z: the time zone as an offset from UTC, with : to necessary
   * precision (e.g., -04, +05:30). This is a gnulib strftime() extension. Since: 2.38
   * - \\%Z: the time zone or name or abbreviation
   * - \\%\\%: a literal \\% character
   * 
   * Some conversion specifications can be modified by preceding the
   * conversion specifier by one or more modifier characters. The
   * following modifiers are supported for many of the numeric
   * conversions:
   * 
   * - O: Use alternative numeric symbols, if the current locale supports those.
   * - _: Pad a numeric result with spaces. This overrides the default padding
   * for the specifier.
   * - -: Do not pad a numeric result. This overrides the default padding
   * for the specifier.
   * - 0: Pad a numeric result with zeros. This overrides the default padding
   * for the specifier.
   * 
   * Additionally, when O is used with B, b, or h, it produces the alternative
   * form of a month name. The alternative form should be used when the month
   * name is used without a day number (e.g., standalone). It is required in
   * some languages (Baltic, Slavic, Greek, and more) due to their grammatical
   * rules. For other languages there is no difference. \\%OB is a GNU and BSD
   * strftime() extension expected to be added to the future POSIX specification,
   * \\%Ob and \\%Oh are GNU strftime() extensions. @newin{2,56}
