Subject: [PATCH] Making date parsing a bit more lenient.

RFC 3339 doesn't say what timezone to assume for date strings without time.  Some servers append "Z" to dates (e.g. "2001-02-03Z") and some clients accept this (e.g. Chrome).  The OpenLayers date parser now accepts dates without times and with "Z" at the end.
