ctime: New module.
* lib/time.in.h (ctime): New declaration.
* lib/ctime.c: New file.
* m4/ctime.m4: New file.
* m4/time_h.m4 (gl_HEADER_TIME_H_DEFAULTS): Initialize GNULIB_CTIME,
REPLACE_CTIME.
* modules/time (Makefile.am): Substitute GNULIB_CTIME, REPLACE_CTIME.
* modules/ctime: New file.
* doc/posix-functions/ctime.texi: Mention the new module.
