[Bug 2148249] [NEW] date: strftime ignores flags and widths on %N (nanoseconds)

[Nick Rosbrook]

Public bug reported:

I initially observed this in systemd's test suite. Reproducer:

$ date --version
date (uutils coreutils) 0.7.0
$ date +%s%6N
1776110477753528961
$ gnudate +%s%6N
1776110490234202

Note the different widths, i.e. uutils date ignores the '6' in the
format specifier.
