libc: Fix first() in strftime.c

We consider the days of the week to be circular in nature starting
with SUN - 0 through SAT - 6. Hence, we have to consider two use
cases:
1. When the difference between the respective day and the newyear
   doesn't wrap around Eg: day = WED newyear = TUE
2. When the difference between the respective day and the newyear
   wraps around Eg: day = TUE newyear = FRI

This patch fixes the algorithm by considering both usecases.
