31268	Update Algerian Arabic (ar_DZ) locale formats.	infosrabah	infosrabah	"Based on the way date are represented in Algeria, the actual `SHORT_DATE_FORMAT` is  `'d/m/Y'` but the correct format is `'j F Y'`.
The actual locale `ar-DZ` formats are also missing (pull request pending):
{{{
SHORT_DATE_FORMAT = 'j F Y'
SHORT_DATETIME_FORMAT = 'j F Y H:i' 

DATE_INPUT_FORMATS = [
     '%Y/%m/%d',  # '2006/10/25' 
]
TIME_INPUT_FORMATS = [
    '%H:%M',        # '14:30    
    '%H:%M:%S',     # '14:30:59'
]
DATETIME_INPUT_FORMATS = [
    '%Y/%m/%d %H:%M',        # '2006/10/25 14:30'
    '%Y/%m/%d %H:%M:%S',     # '2006/10/25 14:30:59'
]

NUMBER_GROUPING = 3
}}}
-----------
The actual Date format are not the exact representation of a dates in the country.
-----------

Even if most RTL other countries are using or still using `'d‏/m‏/Y '`, Algeria is not.  For every date on any resource (News, Official communications, News paper) that using Arabic as a language, the Date format is `'j F Y'`.

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algeria The Wikipedia] describes the French language in Algeria (`fr-DZ`) LTR, not the Arabic (`ar-DZ`) that we are talking about here.

Abbreviations of months don't exist in Algerian Arabic that's why we need to use `N` in short formats instead of `F`.
