  Enable HISTTIMEFORMAT in /etc/skel/.bashrc by default

Bug description:
  Hi,

  /etc/skel/.bashrc has the following:

  | # don't put duplicate lines or lines starting with space in the history.
  | # See bash(1) for more options
  | HISTCONTROL=ignoreboth
  |
  | # append to the history file, don't overwrite it
  | shopt -s histappend
  |
  | # for setting history length see HISTSIZE and HISTFILESIZE in bash(1)
  | HISTSIZE=1000
  | HISTFILESIZE=2000

  It would be nice to also include HISTTIMEFORMAT. Something like
  `HISTTIMEFORMAT='%F %T '`. It helps to serve as a little audit trail.
