localized %X without seconds

[ITsvetkoFF]

Basically I am wondering if there is a non-hacky way in d3 time format to show localized pair of Hours:Minutes (to get 18:03 in German locale and 6:03 PM in US locale)
As I see, moment.js has something like

longDateFormat : {
        LT : 'HH:mm', // <----- this is what I can not find in D3.js
        LTS : 'HH:mm:ss',
        L : 'DD/MM/YYYY',
        LL : 'D MMMM YYYY',
        LLL : 'D MMMM YYYY HH:mm',
        LLLL : 'dddd D MMMM YYYY HH:mm'
    },

I do not suggest to mimic moment behavior, but time without seconds is pretty useful for time charts, where seconds may not be useful. This localized hh:mm pair can be easily used in the localized multiFormat function as formatHour

It seems that every current locale is either %H:%M:%S or %-I:%M:%S %p, so you could just use %H:%M or %-I:%M %p as appropriate. If that feels like a hack, I think we’d have to introduce a new field, say timeMinutes to the locale definition to make the desired localized definition explicit.
