time: rewrite the documentation for layout strings
People continue to be confused by how these work. Address that by some rejiggering. Introduce a constant called Layout that both defines the time and provides a reference point for Parse and Format to refer to. We can then delete much redundancy, especially for Format's comments, but Parse tightens a bit too. Then change the way the concept of the layout string is introduced, and provide a clearer catalog of what its elements are.
