12 vs 24 hour

SUMMARY

I am using zh_CN.UTF-8 locale.
This locale should use a 24-hour time format, as the command line utility
`date` uses. The locale definition file in `/usr/share/i18n/locales/zh_CN`
shows 24-hour, too. But all date/time in KDE applications (dolphin, sddm, etc)
uses 12-hour format, which is strange for Chinese users.

I am aware of the 12/24 hour switch in the digital clock plasmoid, but that
doesn't control the whole KDE. 

All other Chinese locales (zh_TW, yue_HK, etc) use 12-hour in KDE. But the
Japanese (ja_JP) uses 24-hour correctly.

Per my understanding, KDE should define the time format in each locale as the
same in other Linux utilities.
