      bpo-12750 makes strftime('%s') portable. For symmetry,
      datetime.strptime(s, '%s') could be enabled to return local time as an
      aware (to avoid loosing info) datetime object for a given integer
      (seconds since the Epoch) timestamp string.

      I've uploaded a prototype patch with a draft implementation, docs, and
      tests.

      It's a comprehensive patch so can we have a formal review please.

      With PEP-495, conversion from timestamp to naive datetime will no longer loose information. In light of this, I would like to reconsider what strftime('%s') should return in the absence of %z.
