Updated proposal attached.

Still need to decide how to specify locale for calendarformat and 
numberformat

Main changes: 
dropped zoned (and therefore textCalendarRep)
dropped binary for c-time structure

Fw: Second pass at CalendarFormat


Guys

I have added more info to the calendar supplement.  see changes table.

An open question is how to deal with locales. ICU by default uses the 
local locale which is probably not correct for dfdl.
It is also not good that we a property with an enumeration of Monday. 
Tuesday etc.

Also need to consider nulls, defaults and zeroRepresentation (added)

I couldn't decide if it was better to have separate calendarformats for 
text and binary as we do for numberformats.

numberFormat pattern.
