gdatetime: Add g_date_time_format_iso8601() convenience function

This is a simple wrapper around g_date_time_format_iso8601() which
always produces ISO 8601 dates, without people having to remember the
format string for them (and with the convenience of terminating UTC
dates with ‘Z’ rather than ‘+00’).
