- Subject: os.date() on OS X

On OS X, strftime supports the %s format, resulting in the number of seconds
since the epoch.
The attached small diff makes this usable on OS X using os.date('%s')
Before:
Lua 5.3.3 Copyright (C) 1994-2016 Lua.org, PUC-Rio
> print(os.date("%s:%M:%H %d/%m/%Y"))
stdin:1: bad argument #1 to 'date' (invalid conversion specifier '%s:%M:%H %d/%m/%Y')
With the patch applied:
Lua 5.3.3 Copyright (C) 1994-2016 Lua.org, PUC-Rio
> print(os.date("%s:%M:%H %d/%m/%Y"))

I don't know if %s is in ISO C 99 or POSIX, but OS X certainly supports it.
