When working on the leap-seconds, two more small deviations:

% clock scan "24:00"
unable to convert input string: invalid time (hour)
% clock scan "00:00 am"
1732057200

Hour "24:00" should be interpreted as "00:00" next day. This is only allowed when minutes and seconds are zero.

When using am/pm, the 12-hours clock runs from 1 to 12, so "00" should be invalid. But ... since in Japan it is common to use a 0-11 hour clock, I think we should leave this as is. Just mentioning this for completeness.

Since those two are fully separate from leap-seconds handling, let's handle them separately.

[9e101107|fix] now merged to trunk.

Agree about "00:00 am" or "00:00 pm" (and it doesn't bother at all).

However, I don't think that "24:00 am" or "24:00 pm" (with meridian) are correct values (in sense of relation to meridian), so [bf0e4fe924f77516] looks a bit strange to me (regardless validity mode)... Although, probably matter of taste either.

And "24:00" (without meridian) is already working properly (excepting in validity mode). So my guess, we need to fix only this.
