date,touch: allow timezone offsets in dates

2021-09-16T22:11:30+00:00

Allow ISO 8601 style dates to include a timezone offset.  Like
the '@' format these dates aren't relative to the user's current
timezone and shouldn't be subject to DST adjustment.

- The implementation uses the strptime() '%z' format specifier.
  This an extension which may not be available so the use of
  timezones is a configuration option.

- The 'touch' applet has been updated to respect whether DST
  adjustment is required, matching 'date'.

build system: drop PLATFORM_LINUX

2020-08-13T15:12:56+00:00

PLATFORM_LINUX is a hidden configuration option which is disabled by
default and enabled at over a hundred locations for features that are
deemed to be Linux specific.

The only effect of PLATFORM_LINUX is to control compilation of
libbb/match_fstype.c.  This file is only needed by mount and umount.

Remove all references to PLATFORM_LINUX and compile match_fstype.c
if mount or umount is enabled.
