    libstdc++: Format chrono %a/%A/%b/%B/%p using locale's time_put [PR117214]
    
    C++ formatting locale could have a custom time_put that performs
    differently from the C locale, so do not use __timepunct directly.
    
    This patch for gcc-15 was originally submitted for trunk, but then got
    rebased and committed as r16-2063-g8ad5968a8dcb47. For the gcc-15
    backport we need to go back to the original v1 patch.

            (__formatter_chrono::_M_b_B, __formatter_chrono::_M_p): Use
            _M_locale_fmt to format %a/%A/%b/%B/%p.
            * testsuite/std/time/format/pr117214_custom_timeput.cc: New
