[Bug libstdc++/38081] time_get<>::do_get_weekday does not always recognize full names of weekdays

I'm working on this, and I want to make sure we agree about the third case. As
I understand the Standard, the expected is 1, not -1, that is, I don't see
anything wrong with parsing Pndedelnik as Pnd followed by an 'e'. Of course the
parsing (at variance with the current behavior) must stop on that 'e', with
error status good instead of eof. In fact, in this case the abbreviation is
*not* followed by characters that could match a full name (as is the case of
Monday in English, for example), and the facet simply doesn't continue reading
beyond that 'e'. In other terms, I don't see why Pndedelnik should be different
from 'Pnd ', that is Pnd followed by a space (which I'm sure we agree it's
fine).
