[Bug localedata/7068] New: en_GB locale has wrong week specifier


en_GB locale specifies in its week directive that its days list is Sunday-based,
while in fact it is Monday-based. With the recent first_w*day change from
September, this causes calendar applications to malfunction since the first
w*days now essentially point to the Tuesday string. Patch to follow.

There is a similar problem in csb_PL. Huge number of other locales have the week
directive wrong too (cs_CZ, de_DE, ...) but have first_weekday set to 1 so
usually the week just appears to start with Sunday instead of Monday which is
apparently less noticeable by users. I will start opening bugs for these locales
later.
