[issue1158] %f format for datetime objects

[Brett Cannon]

Brett Cannon added the comment:

In terms of strptime, I would just change _strptime.strptime() to
_strptime._strptime() and have it return everything along with the
microseconds measurement.  Then have public functions that call that
function and either strip off the microseconds or not.
