instead use pure substring matching to find template values.
this makes stdZulu unnecessary and allows formats
like "20060102 030405" (used in some internet protocols).
this makes Parse not handle years < 0000 or > 9999 anymore.
that seems like an okay price to pay, trading hypothetical
functionality for real functionality.
also changed the comments on the Time struct to use the
same reference date as the format and parse routines.

Make sure to print a time zone when formatting even if none is defined.
Add a comment introducing lookupTimezone (not lookupTimeZone).
Fixes isse 577.

The model is that formatString is a a representation of a standard time,
and that Format converts the time to that representation.
Standard representaitons are defined for ANSIC, RFC850, RFC1123, and ISO8601.
There's also a humane Kitchen fomat: 3:04PM.
