blackbox: change year in logs to ISO 8601 format

AFAIK, year/month/day is not a format than anyone uses. It seems more
sensible to me to use ISO 8601, as that's standard and unambiguously
year-month-day.

Compatibility-wise, I think it's acceptable to change the default
format. It's most for human consumption. It's plausible that a few
tools parse this format, but it has already changed in the past (for
instance to add the current revision).

== New Features ==

 * The amend extension supports the `--currentuser` argument.

 * The amend extension supports the `--close-branch` argument.

 * The amend extension supports the `--secret` argument.

 * The uncommit extension supports the `rewrite.update-timestamp` config option.

== New Experimental Features ==


== Bug Fixes  ==


== Backwards Compatibility Changes ==

 * A shell that supports `$(command)`` syntax for command substitution is now
   required for running the test suite. The test runner normally uses
   `sh`, so if that is a shell that doesn't support `$(command)` syntax,
   you can override it by setting `$HGTEST_SHELL` or by passing it to
   `run-tests.py --shell <shell>`.

 * The (experimental) narrow extension's wire protocol changed. If
   you're using it, you'll need to make sure to upgrade server and
   client at the same time.

== Internal API Changes ==
