Before d00c0e317, `Datetime` fields would be editable in frontend but would
have unexpected results, especially in non-English languages, for when the
english lang format had been changed.
It would also crash when saving non-English strings, such as `Lundi`.
For more details, see https://github.com/odoo/odoo/pull/44484#issuecomment-586850490
Since d00c0e317, only date displayed in lang format would be editable, which
case is Event page in Odoo 12.0. Everywhere else, the format is changed for a
nicer layout, either with `widget=XXX` or `t-options=YYY`, such as:
`<time t-field="record.date" t-options='{"format": "MMM d, yyyy"}'/>`
`<time t-field="record.date" t-options="{'time_only': 'true', 'format': 'short'}"/>`
When a date parsing crashes during editor save, the problem is not only that
the date can be saved, but the whole changes of the page are lost, as they
won't be saved either.
This commit attempts to fix every languages cases, regardless of the website
lang or user lang.
To do so, we store the date in the user lang format in a data attribute of
every date field in the DOM. Once the field is clicked (to edit probably),
that value will replace the one displayed according to the widget/options.
That way, dates will always be sent to the server in the user lang format,
avoiding any possible mismatch.
This whole fix apply to `Datetime` and `Date` fields.
