Mismatch datetime separator in datetime picker for several locales

[Jun Omae]

Originally reported in [50289f02/rjollos.git].

timepicker_separator is always ' ' when iso8601 format isn't configured. However, date/time separator isn't a space character for several locales. ({0} is time part, {1} is date part in get_datetime_format()).

The change looks good. I might have found another issue while testing, reported in #12203.

[Ryan J Ollos]

This might be unrelated, but after the upgrade of timepicker in [14312:14313], with the changes for this ticket rebased on the trunk, an error is seen in the console when the separator is anything other than a whitespace (e.g. en_US):

Error parsing the date string: Extra/unparsed characters found in date: , 11:45:29 AM
date string = Sep 5, 2015, 11:45:29 AM
date format = M d, yy

I can create another ticket for the issue if it's unrelated.

Committed in [14314] and merged to trunk in [14315].

I think no problem about that log. The datetime picker calls original $.datepicker.parseDate before $.timepicker's parseDate is called. If the text has time part, $.datepicker.parseDate raises an exception and that log is written in console.
