toLocaleDateString and toLocaleTimeString return date in "%m/%d/%Y" and "%I:%M:%S %p" formats, while I want them to use "%Y-%m-%d" and "%H:%M:%S" formats. What settings/environment variables should I change?

I think the time and date is base on you O/S.

You can include a locale and a JSON options parameters, so maybe try if you can find a locale that orders the items like you prefer.
