* Document Parse's zone interpretation.
* Add ParseInLocation (API change).
* Recognize "wrong" time zone names, like daylight savings time in winter.
* Disambiguate time zone names using offset (like winter EST vs summer EST in Sydney).
The final two are backwards-incompatible changes, but I believe
they are both buggy behavior in the Go 1.0 versions; the old results
were more wrong than the new ones.

This fixes the incorrect unix timestamp of the standard time and adds
an example for (Time) Format to clarify how timezones work in format strings.

The recent shuffle in parsing formats exposed probably unintentional
behavior in time.Parse, namely that it was mostly ignoring ".99999"
in the format, producing the following behavior:
fmt.Println(time.Parse("03:04:05.999 MST", "12:00:00.888 PDT")) // error (.888 unexpected)
fmt.Println(time.Parse("03:04:05.999", "12:00:00")) // error (input too short)
fmt.Println(time.Parse("03:04:05.999 MST", "12:00:00 PDT")) // ok (extra bytes on input make it ok)
http://play.golang.org/p/ESJ1UYXzq2
API CHANGE:
This CL makes all three examples valid: ".999" can match an
empty string or else a fractional second with at most nine digits.

I have a small web server that simply sets several cookies
along with an expires header, and then returns. In the
cpuprofile for a 200k request benchmark, time.Time.Format()
was showing up as 8.3% of cpu usage. Giving the buffer an
inital capacity to avoid reallocs on append drops it down to
7.6%.

For mysterious reasons, the existing string was just wrong: it was missing a colon.
There is no apparent reason for this discrepancy.
This should be safe to fix because existing uses would not be RFC822-compliant;
people cannot be depending on it to generate correct mail headers.

This change shows all the information present
in the Time value (now including fractional seconds)
and also arranges the fields so that, within a single time zone,
string comparison and time comparison agree.

encoding/xml: handle time.Time as recognized type
The long term plan is to define an interface that time.Time
can implement and that encoding/xml can call, but we are
not going to try to define that interface before Go 1.
Instead, special-case time.Time in package xml, because
it is such a fundamental type, as a stop-gap.
The eventual methods will behave this way.
Fixes#2793.

Weekday is redundant information for a Time structure.
When parsing a time with a weekday specified, it can create an
incorrect Time value.
When parsing a time without a weekday specified, people
expect the weekday to be set.
Fix all three problems by computing the weekday on demand.
This is hard to gofix, since we must change the type of the node.
Since uses are rare and existing code will be caught by the compiler,
there is no gofix module here.

This is a core API change.
1) gofix misc src
2) Manual adjustments to the following files under src/pkg:
gob/decode.go
rpc/client.go
os/error.go
io/io.go
bufio/bufio.go
http/request.go
websocket/client.go
as well as:
src/cmd/gofix/testdata/*.go.in (reverted)
test/fixedbugs/bug243.go
3) Implemented gofix patch (oserrorstring.go) and test case (oserrorstring_test.go)
Compiles and runs all tests.

1) hack regalloc to leave R9 (m) and R10 (g) alone.
the real fix is tricker, but this gets us running
2) fix up the few places in the package sources that
the shortage of registers affects, by simplifying
some expressions.
all of this should be reverted when the right fix is in.
Fixes#1084.

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.

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.
