Fix some issues with localized dates/epoch usage
Commit 47622eef4dd8fd86a0aa0e3ebdb7b33f7c9d6804 introduced localized times in the metadata by way of storing the UNIX epoch value instead of a hard coded date string. However, it missed a few things: * If we weren't in the C/POSIX/en_US locale, the date parsing would fail as it tried to use the abbreviations of the locale being used. Fix this by switching the LC_TIME value before we parse a date. * We used ctime to print the date value, which is always the C locale string. Instead, use strftime to print a localized date string.
