'ietf-drums-parse-date-string' parses a time and/or date in a
string and returns a list of values, just like decode-time, where
unspecified elements in the string are returned as nil (except
unspecified DST is returned as -1). encode-time may be applied
on these values to obtain an internal time value.
Historically, parse-time-string was used for this purpose, but it
was gradually but imperfectly extended to handle other date
formats. 'ietf-drums-parse-date-string' is compatible in that it
uses the same return value format and parses the same email date
formats by default, but can be made stricter if desired.
