datetime.strptime's %z should support +HH

Feature or enhancement

Proposal:

The %z directive supports the UTC offset in the form ±HHMM[SS[.ffffff]]. Other parsing functions like fromisoformat on the other hand support the full format ±HH[MM[SS[.ffffff]]]. So there is no strptime format that supports the fromisoformat.

from datetime import datetime
datetime.fromisoformat("2023-05-25T15:35:05.666+01")  # ok
datetime.strptime("2023-05-25T15:35:05.666+01", "%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S.%f%z")  # nok

The same may apply to %:z (https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/121237)

Has this already been discussed elsewhere?

This is a minor feature, which does not need previous discussion elsewhere

Start with the datetime.strptime() handling of the %z directive and compare it with datetime.fromisoformat(), using the issue's +01 example as the behavioral reference. Check whether the same consideration applies to %:z; done means the documented offset form is accepted consistently, with coverage for the example.
