Add option to show/hide the source link in plot_directive
plot_date: Set the default fmt to 'o'

Different to just plot() plot_date() has a default plot format string
which makes it necessary to *unset* the default one when drawing
multiple sequences of dates in a figure to get a working color cycling.
It also was not exactly clear that Axes.set_color_cycle was setting the
color cycle for every plot command except for plot_date ones.

It was of course possible to simply unset it after reading the
documentation but that's not the path of least suprise.

The default fmt of 'o' will keep the markers by default (which makes
sense for dates) but allows color cycling to happen.
