Support for setlocale() function

Hi,

ZoneMinder does support different languages but the present version does not support the setlocale() function.
For the date on the mainpage it uses date( "D jS M, g:ia" ).
It would be nice to have this changed to use setlocale(LC_TIME, $locale); where $locale could be set in the configuration to proper format, example:
$locale = 'swedish';
//Swedish format: Tis 2 mar, 21:35
$local_format = '%a %e %b, %H:%M';
setlocale(LC_TIME, $locale);

and then use strftime to display the values.

I agree that it is a little inconvenient. The reason it is like this is that I don't actually like the default locale string that it gives in the UK. I guess I should make it optional though.
