Title: Feature Request: Standardize CLI Datetime Output to ISO 8601

Description

The clock command in MeshCore CLI currently outputs timestamps using HH:MM - DD/MM/YYYY UTC. Standardizing this response to the ISO 8601 standard (YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ or YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS UTC) eliminates regional ambiguity between DD/MM and MM/DD formats while enabling automated scripts and external parsers to process log data cleanly.

Current Output

clock
18:42 - 16/8/2026 UTC

Proposed Output

clock
2026-08-16T18:42:00Z
(or 2026-08-16 18:42:00 UTC)

Environment & System Context

  • Firmware Version: v1.16.0-07a3ca9 (Build: 06-Jun-2026)
  • Hardware: ProMicro DIY
  • Access Method: MeshCore Web Interface / Repeater Admin CLI
