31052	Let Django users customize FORMAT_SETTINGS (a feature request)	אורי	nobody	"I customized `FORMAT_SETTINGS` in Speedy Net, you can see more information in this commit:
https://github.com/speedy-net/speedy-net/commit/f5dc4896c136a816ab9fe0dc360d3fd59d0a5f33  

And on Stack Overflow:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57188435/django-how-do-i-override-default-date-formats-per-locale 

To customize `FORMAT_SETTINGS` I had to patch 14 files, because the tests failed and I had to patch the tests too. Is it possible to let Django users customize `FORMAT_SETTINGS` without having to patch files? For example you can check if the settings contain `FORMAT_SETTINGS`, and if it is - include these settings in the global `FORMAT_SETTINGS` (a union, like in the above commit).

`formats.FORMAT_SETTINGS = formats.FORMAT_SETTINGS.union(django_settings.FORMAT_SETTINGS)`
