I really like the idea, and the implementation seems fine for this use case, but
before we reserve %pt for rtc_time, could we discuss whether we want
that for printing struct tm, struct timespec64, time64_t or ktime_t instead?
I can see good reasons for pretty-printing any of them, but the namespace for
format strings is rather limited.
struct rtc_time is almost the same as struct tm (the former has one extra
member), so maybe we can actually define them to be the same and
use one format string for both?
