Summary: clock scan fails with %V

Initial Comment:
The clock scan command returns always the current week when the given format only contains the week (%V).

test-case showing failure

for {set week 0} {$week < 22} {incr week} {
     set x [clock scan "$week 2008" -format "%V %Y"]
     puts [clock format $x]
}

However it works correctly when a week day is supplied.

test-case workaround

 for {set week 0} {$week < 22} {incr week} {
     set x [clock scan "$week Sun" -format "%V %A"]
     puts [clock format $x]
 
}


This could be a fix in the code. In that it assumes the current day.

Or this could be a fix in the documentation. In that it is clearly stated that for the scan and format %V the week day shall be supplied to.


>From my point of view I'd prefer a fix in the code. Primarily because clock already assumes in the workaround that the year is the current year.
