Use strftime to convert DateTime to numeric

The native implementation of the seconds since the UNIX epoch in
strftime is significantly faster than our method.

Benchmark:
----------
require 'benchmark/ips'
require 'date'
require 'time'

date = DateTime.civil(1253,7,6,20,4,0)

Benchmark.ips do |x|
  x.report("strftime.to_i") { date.strftime('%s').to_i }
  x.report("ssue.to_i") { ((date - DateTime.civil(1970)) * 86400).to_i }

  x.report("strftime.to_f") { date.strftime('%s').to_f }
  x.report("ssue.to_f") { ((date - DateTime.civil(1970)) * 86400).to_f }
end
