Description

I would be great if grunt.template.today could output in UTC time.
Since date.format already does that when called with a second argument set to `true`, I think I would not be too hard to implement.

Research direction

Start by locating grunt.template.today and date.format, then inspect how the second true argument controls UTC output. Check the existing tests around these entry points and verify that template.today can produce UTC-formatted dates without changing current behavior.
