Subject: strftime missing some format verbs

Hi list,

while testing SQLite 3.45.1 with a transpilled-to-Go version of musl
libc, date4.test (from the SQLite Tcl test suite) reports errors. The
reason is the lack of support for the %l, %k and %P format verbs. The
tests pass with this patch:

Those verbs seem to be not part of POSIX, so maybe musl does not
support them intentionally.
