tind: A Common Representation of Time Indices of Different Types

Provides an easy-to-use tind class representing time indices of different types (years, quarters, months, ISO 8601 weeks, dates, time of day, date-time, and arbitrary integer/numeric indices). Includes an extensive collection of functions for calendrical computations (including business applications), index conversions, index parsing, and other operations. Auxiliary classes representing time differences and time intervals (with set operations and index matching functionality) are also provided. All routines have been optimised for speed in order to facilitate computations on large datasets. More details regarding calendars in general and calendrical algorithms can be found in "Calendar FAQ" by Claus Tøndering <https://www.tondering.dk/claus/calendar.html>.
