hwclock: use parse_date function
* hwclock.c: replace interpret_date_string() with parse_date().
Eliminates shell injection vulnerability from popen() date(1).
Removes system dependency on date(1).
Reduction in hwclock execution time.
Significant cleanup of hwclock.c code.
* Bug fix for "hwclock --predict --date 'bad_date'" printing:
hwclock: No usable set-to time. Cannot set clock.
The message now matches date(1) for an invalid --date argument.
