We still don't do that in _to_iso8601_string() though, since
this will probably mostly be used in tags, where it doesn't
matter so much and the microsecond argument might not be
well-received by some tag readers.
When we fail to parse the number of seconds, reset the value to -1
instead of passing some error value as seconds. Also, we can still
try to parse timezone information.
Take into account that not all fields might be valid (though they
are valid in the GDateTime structure). But we should just return
unordered if the set fields don't match. Also, don't check
microseconds when comparing datetimes, since we don't serialise
those by default if they're available. This ensures date times are
still regarded as equal after serialising+deserialising.
Some tag parsers and writers use same datetime format based on ISO 8601.
We can reduce some code by creating some general functions for it.

Remove constructors we don't want:
gst_date_time_new_ymd_h() because we don't want to
support hour-only for now;
gst_date_time_new_ymd_hm() because we don't want to
add constructors with time info where the caller doesn't
have to think about what timezone the time is in.
Lots of compulsive clean-up. Docs fixes. Replace
has_minute() and has_hour() with has_time().
In order to deserialise and re-serialise dates and date times
from tags properly, we need to be able to express partial
dates (e.g. YYYY or YYYY-MM) and date times.
We only support partial date times where all the more
significant fields above the first unset field are set
(e.g. YYYY-00-DD is not supported).
Calling _get_foo() when foo is not set is not allowed
any more, callers need to check which fields are set
first.

Fix returning of timezones on systems with gdatetime
to use floats on the math expression to avoid
truncating the fractional part.
Also adds a test for covering this case.
Adds 2 variants for the gst_date_time_from_unix_epoch function,
one for UTC and another for local time.
