Hi zibi, do you know which API should we use to know whether a locale uses 12 or 24hr clock? Thanks.
Flags: needinfo?(gandalf)
Yep, use `(new Intl.DateTimeFormat('pl', {hour: 'numeric'})).resolvedOptions().hour12`

Stealing mconley's review.

Looks good but I'd like to see this again before landing.

The method name here implies it returns some kind of format information when really it just returns true or false. Let's name it "is12HourTime" unless you have other suggestions?

`is12HourTime` is good, thanks.

I have a debug flag, so the logging is not enabled by default. Do I still need to remove it?

Clearing review flags, as Mossop has graciously stepped in to review this stuff (not only to help clear my review queue, but also to spread the knowledge of how the DateTime stuff works around!).
Thanks to Mike and Mossop! And ni? for comment 6.

Firefox 68.0.2. When i scroll time up, when hours are changing from 12 to 01 or back AM-PM stays the same. Also when minutes are changed 59<>01 hours does not change, but this is ok.
Also, in region where i live people does not understand what "AM" and "PM" mean, but Firefox for some reason is set to 12 hour format.
