Missing Date meta ZIM (invalid) produces non-ISO dc:created/update in OPDS

[rgaudin]

When a book doesn't specify a Date metadata (neither in-ZIM or in the library.xml), the returned OPDS entry includes invalid values for updated and dc:issued.

Given the spec mandates the Date metadata, we should not care much about how to handle it. We've also discussed in other tickets whether to support invalid ZIM at all.

Opening this for history's sake but also recreating the ZIM and openzim/python-scraperlib#95.

Incidentally it only concerns a single ZIM 🤷‍♂️
