Add `EOD / end of day` to top misused terms handbook

Michael Friedrich requested to merge top-misused-terms-eod into master

Why is this change being made?

I'm seeing an increased number of mixed date and time formats, and unclear request due dates in Slack, issues, documents.

please review this MR by 2/9 EOD

uses the wrong date and time format, following the communication guidelines. Shared a reminder with team members in #whats-happening-at-gitlab Slack on 2023-02-22 (internal).

EOD is also used more frequently, and does not define an exact due date.

This MR adds EOD to the top misused terms handbook.
