date: make "iso-strict" conforming for the UTC timezone

ISO 8601-1:2020-12 specifies that a zero timezone offset must be denoted with a "Z" suffix instead of the numeric "+00:00". Add the correponding special case to show_date() and a new test. Changing an established output format which might be depended on by scripts is always problematic, but here we choose to adhere more closely to the published standard.
