Fix mkdocs build: move blogging locale/time_format under the plugin#15

Conversation
The blogging plugin's `locale`, `time_format` and `meta_time_format` keys were nested under `theme:`, where mkdocs-material ignores them. The blogging plugin therefore fell back to the runner's `LC_TIME=C`; newer babel rejects that with `UnknownLocaleError: 'c'`, breaking `mkdocs build -c -s` (make docs-validate). Move the three keys under `- blogging:` so `locale: en` actually applies.

locale,time_formatandmeta_time_formatwere nested undertheme:, where mkdocs-material ignores them — so they never reached the blogging plugin.Fix
