dojo.date.locale.format has a memory leak

[bschlangen]

Each time that dojo/date/local.js format() function is called memory is allocated and a portion of that memory is never garbage collected.

Tested in Chrome v. 44

Initial Digging suggests that leak is actually caused by the line:

if(pattern){str.push(_processPattern(pattern, sauce));}

Discussed this with peller today. We need a more involved test case to track this down, as we're not seeing the issue with the test cases that are built in.

@bschlangen, can you provide a more detailed test case please?

If you still are interested in pursuing this issue, feel free to add a comment with the requested information and we will be happy to reopen the ticket if it is still valid. Thanks!
