mobile: use short date format in edit mode

See issue #949. In the dive list, dates are shown in short format, and
when we start to edit an existing dive, the date field on the edit
page is shown in sort format. However, when adding a new dive, the
initial date shows up in long (normal) format. This in not only
inconsistent, but also introduces the parsing problem, as described
in the mentioned issue.

This can be fixed by using short formatted dates in all cases in
the mobile app. As the screen real estate is precious on mobile,
this seems the most logical choice.

Fixed: #949
