Editorial: DRY refactor of time formatting

This editorial commit removes redundant spec text dealing with time
formatting:
* Adds a new AO FormatTimeString, and calls it in TemporalTimeToString,
  TemporalDateTimeToString, and TimeString (the legacy date AO in 262).
* Removes FormatSecondsStringPart and replaces it with a new AO
  FormatFractionalSeconds, and call it in FormatTimeString and
  TemporalDurationToString. The text of this new AO is aligned with
  similar text in GetOffsetStringFor in #2607.
* Replaces sub-second formatting text in TemporalDurationToString
  with a call to FormatFractionalSeconds.
* Aligns polyfill code to these spec changes.
* Adjusts polyfill code in a few places to better match the spec.

Note that this commit doesn't touch spec text for formatting time zone
offsets because there are several in-flight PRs dealing with offsets
and I wanted to keep this PR merge-conflict-free. But once those
PRs land and the dust settles, then I'll send another editorial PR to
DRY offset string formatting too, by using FormatTimeString to replace
bespoke formatting text for offsets.
