Inconsistent results when parsing different time conventions (12-hour vs 24-hour clock)

[pawelkrol]

There is a strange behaviour observed when parsing plain times using chronic gem:

• When time is expressed in the 12-hour clock convention, we get today's date as a result.
• When time is expressed in the 24-hour clock convention, we get tomorrow's date as a result.

It seems a bit inconsistent to me, please see the following example:

2.1.5 :001 > require 'chronic'
 => true 
2.1.5 :002 > Chronic.parse("08:00AM")
 => 2016-02-24 08:00:00 +0100 
2.1.5 :003 > Chronic.parse("08:00")
 => 2016-02-25 08:00:00 +0100 

It has been confirmed with 0.9.1 and 0.10.2 releases, as well as the latest master branch.

yeah, it's a bug, it's fixed in my rewrite branch but that's not ready yet and will be released as next major version.

Thanks a lot for your confirmation. I am looking forward to a new release version containing this fix.
