M7: dotted day-first dates in header and footer (#4503)

Header and footer dates had US, ISO and day-first slash forms only. The
dotted forms written in German-speaking and much of Central and Eastern
Europe join them: <<dd.mm.yyyy>>, <<d.m.yyyy>>, <<dd.mm.yy>>, <<d.m.yy>>.
The dialog's date list offers the first three after the existing ones.
