[issue7994] object.__format__ should reject format strings

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray added the comment:

Yes.  It is not returning the format specifier, it is filling in the strftime template "s" from the datetime...which equals "s", since it consists of just that constant string.

Try {:%Y-%m-%d}, for example.
