0000722: Adding more defaults to language adding form
The issue comes up, when web-server (e.g. Apache) default served charset is not "utf-8". Unfortunately we can't rely on this setting here and this is what is proposed to do:

1. As Default CHARSET for Languages we put utf-8 (will be pre-filled on the form)

2. Always put utf-8 in the HTML when you are adding a NEW language and "<inp2:lang_Field name="Charset"/>" is empty (on the first form load). This will help to prevent default Webserver charset to be applied when

<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset="/> (EMPTY).

3. Additionally for convenience of saving time I propose to set Default values for:

a. Date Format [same as date ouput]
b. Time Format: [same as time ouput]
c. Decimal Point: .
d. MOVE "Icon URL" and "Icon URL (disabled)" before "User Documentation URL" field - since these are rarely filled with values.
Charset is missing during new language adding resulting failure to save non-english text entered on form.

For example type to type "Русский" as "Local Name" field value during language creation. This will result given required field being empty when you try to edit that language later.

1. Don't place any dynamic code in unit config file (e.g. "date" function call); also we use adodb for all date/time-related calls

2. Don't change block comments to add extra new lines, e.g. "/*$test" should not be replaced by "/*
$test"

Where problems during patch applying. Fixed on the way.

Also I've replaced back date formats from "d.m.Y" to "dd.mm.yyyy" as they were before, since it's more native to non-programmers.
