Summary: timestamp function for time module

Initial Comment:
Timestamp creates timestamp strings 
in ISO or ODBC format in UTC or local timezones. 
It can also add microseconds where needed. 
Timestamps are often needed 
outside database or XML activities, 
so its proposed location is the time module.

timestamp(secs=None,fmt='ISO',TZ=None,fracsec=None):
    '''Make ISO or ODBC timestamp from [current] time.
    Parameters:
    secs= float seconds, else default = time()
    fmt = 'ISO' use ISO 8601 standard format = 
            "YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.mmmmmmZ"       Zulu or
            "YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.mmmmmm-hh:mm"  local
      else  "YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS.mmmmmm"        ODBC
    TZ      = None=GMT/UTC/Zulu, else local time zone
    fracsec = None, else add microseconds to string
    '''

Any improvement or standardization is welcome.
