prune: introduce OPT_EXPIRY_DATE() and use it
Earlier we added support for --expire=all (or --expire=now) that considers all crufts, regardless of their age, as eligible for garbage collection by turning command argument parsers that use approxidate() to use parse_expiry_date(), but "git prune" used a built-in parse-options facility OPT_DATE() and did not benefit from the new function.
