Fix dateFormat documentation

Browse Source 
Please countercheck my changes – I _think_ `dateFormat` cannot return its `INPUT` "as a Go `time.Time` type value" as the documentation originally suggested. This is what `time` does.

`dateFormat` converts the textual representation of the `datetime` into the specified format or returns it as a Go `time.Time` type value. These are formatted with the layout string. `dateFormat` converts an [ISO 8601](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601) timestamp string `INPUT` into the format specified by the `LAYOUT` string.
``` ```
{{ dateFormat "Monday, Jan 2, 2006" "2015-01-21" }} → "Wednesday, Jan 21, 2015" {{ dateFormat "Monday, Jan 2, 2006" "2015-01-21" }} → "Wednesday, Jan 21, 2015"

See the [`Format` function](/functions/format/) for a more complete list of date formatting options in your templates. See [Go’s Layout String](/functions/format/#gos-layout-string) to learn about how the `LAYOUT` string has to be formatted. There are also some useful examples.
See the [`time` function](/functions/time/) to convert an [ISO 8601](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601) timestamp string to a Go `time.Time` type value.
