Parse date from any format, including ISO 8601

Description

Three useful functions to parse and format dates.

• parse_iso_8601 recognizes and parses all valid ISO 8601 date and time formats. It can also be used as an ISO 8601 validator.

• parse_date can parse a date when you don't know which format it is in. First it tries all ISO 8601 formats. Then it tries git's versatile date parser. Lastly, it tries as.POSIXct.

• format_iso_8601 formats a date (and time) in a specific ISO 8601 format.
