Should there be a tabular version of apmonth? (Jan, Mar, Nov, etc.)

A variation of AP style on months is that in extremely tight scenarios you can use what they consider the "tabular" forms of month abbreviations, which is the first three characters of a month without a ending period. (Same logic with May of course, but it doesn't matter there.)

If it's worth having, there are a few paths we could take. apmonth (and apdate) currently have a single parameter (the input Date) so it would have to be decided whether we finally break from that and add options, or if there are spin off versions that do this instead. (Something like apmonthtab, tabularapmonth or something else less gross.)

I lean toward the option approach because it'd be wacky IMO to keep making spin offs for each little variation, and apdate is already slightly needing some way to optionally include the year.

Another path is to only do this for apmonth and not apdate, which one could assume is rarely after the tabular format.
