To better support IntlCalendar, added this function:
string IntlDateFormatter::formatObject(IntlCalendar|DateTime $obj [,
array|int|string $format = null [, string $locale = null).
$format is either of the constants IntlDateFormatter::FULL, etc., in
which case this format applies to both the date and the time, an array
in the form array($dateFormat, $timeFormat), or a string with the
SimpleDateFormat pattern.
This uses both the Calendar type and the timezone of the passed object
to configure the formatter (a GregorianCalendar is forced for
DateTime).
Some stuff was moved around and slighlt modified to allow for more code
reuse.
IntlTimeZone::fromDateTimeZone(DateTimeZone $dtz) converts from an
ext/date TimeZone to an IntlTimeZone. The conversion is done by feeding
the time zone name (essentially what would be given by
DateTimeZone::getName()) to ICU's TimeZone::createTimeZone except if it's
an offset time zone. In that case, the offset is read from the ext/date
time zone object structure and an appopriate id (of the form
GMT<+|-><HH:MM>) is given to ICU's TimeZone::createTimeZone. Not all
ext/date time zones are recognized for ICU. For instance, WEST is not.
Note that these kind of abbreviations, as far as I can tell, can only be
created via ext/date DateTime, not directly through DateTimeZone's
constructor.
For IntlTimeZone::toDateTimeZone(), the behavior is symmetrical.
We instantiate a DateTimeZone and then call its constructor if we don't
have an offset time zone, otherwise we mess with its structure. If the
timezone is not valid for ext/date, then we allow the exception of
DateTimeZone constructor to propagate.
