Add 12/24 Hour format

[natiq2004]

Assalamu aleykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu.

Please add the option 12 (AM/PM) and 24 Hour format. This is necessary options.

// Example times[.isha].toTime12() // 09:00 PM times[.isha].toTime24() // 21:00

Please look at this: https://github.com/ashikahmad/PrayerTimes-Swift/tree/refactor-calculation

Hi,

Our library returns Date objects. We do not have any convenience functions for date formatting as formatting is very different depending on your locale. It is trivial to implement your own toTime12 or toTime24 extensions to the Date object:

extension Date {
    func toTime12() -> String {
        let dateFormatter = DateFormatter()
        dateFormatter.dateFormat = "hh:mm a"
        return dateFormatter.string(from: self)
    }

    func toTime24() -> String {
        let dateFormatter = DateFormatter()
        dateFormatter.dateFormat = "HH:mm"
        return dateFormatter.string(from: self)
    }
}

The issue now is what about timezone? If we added date formatting functionality to the library we would have to make a lot of assumptions, or we would have to make the date formatting functions capable of handling many situations. Foundation's DateFormatter already does all this so we do not.
