Add helper for creating custom time formatters #21

Currently there isn't a way to e.g. remove the padding from dateSlash or dayOfMonth. This PR adds a helper that lets you define custom date formats, for instance:

-- 5/4/2016 vs 05/04/2016 from `dateSlash`
dateSlashNoPadding = customTimeFmt "%-m/%-d/%Y"

-- 4 vs 04 from `dayOfMonth`
dayOfMonthNoPadding = customTimeFmt "%-d"
