Impute start or end dates

Description

Imputes missing date elements for start or end dates. Partial dates should be in the format "UNKN-UN-UN" or some combination of those characters and numbers (ie "2017-UN-UN"). Dates with no information or dates with a missing year will be converted to NA. For start dates, missing days are assumed to be the first of the month while missing months are assumed to be January. For end dates, missing days are assumed to be the last day of the month and missing months are assumed to be December.

Arguments

ptype	a string of either "start" or "end" indicating whether start or end dates should be imputed, respectively
