editcap: "2008-01-11 11:11:11" isn't a valid time format

editcap depends on a gnu extension "%F" to strptime rather than using the
function as spec'd in the X/Open Portability Guide Issue 4.2.

Here <http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/strptime.html> is
a unix man page for strptime.

The following fix uses only the arguments from the X/Open version of strptime:
