Correct 'status-right' issue for tmux-2.3

I had noticed my .tmux.conf status-right setting ("%a %Y-%m-%d %H:%M") stopped working recently and wasn't displaying as expected. Some scrounging around on the Web led me to upstream's issue on the matter[0], which includes a patch. There is a work-around sans patch (setting default colors explicitly), but it's hacky at best. I've tested the patch[1] applied as a user patch and the issue is resolved. I've added the patch as an attachment.

I searched for a duplicate bug but could not find one.

Steps To Reproduce:

1. emerge app-misc/tmux-2.3
2. include `set -g status-right "%a %Y-%m-%d %H:%M"` somewhere in ~/.tmux.conf
3. load tmux and check the lower right hand side. The current DOW and ISO time should show up.

Problem:

The text isn't showing up.

Solution:

The attached patch worked for me with a simple re-emerge, on the 'default/linux/amd64/13.0/developer' profile, on ~amd64.
