Tomasz Kamiński 9f1c4b0110 Implemented clock_cast for local_time.
Implemented clock_time_conversion<D, local_t> calling D::from_local
and clock_time_conversion<locat_t, S> calling S::to_local.

To avoid ambiguities addes:
* clock_time_conversion<local_t, local_t> - idenitity
* clock_time_conversion<local_t, utc_clock> - same as default (utc_clock::to_local)
* clock_time_conversion<utc_clock, local_t> - same as default (utc_clock::from_local)

In addition, as std::chrono::system_clock cannot be edited, added:
* clock_time_conversion<local_t, std::chrono::system_clock> - assumes same epoch
* clock_time_conversion<std::chrono::system_clock, local_t> - assumes same epoch
They will be required to resolve amibiguity anyway.

Summary

This is actually several separate C++11/C++14/C++17 libraries:

  1. "date.h" is a header-only library which builds upon <chrono>. It adds some new duration types, and new time_point types. It also adds "field" types such as year_month_day which is a struct {year, month, day}. And it provides convenient means to convert between the "field" types and the time_point types.

  2. "tz.h" / "tz.cpp" are a timezone library built on top of the "date.h" library. This timezone library is a complete parser of the IANA timezone database. It provides for an easy way to access all of the data in this database, using the types from "date.h" and <chrono>. The IANA database also includes data on leap seconds, and this library provides utilities to compute with that information as well.

  3. "iso_week.h" is a header-only library built on top of the "date.h" library which implements the ISO week date calendar.

  4. "julian.h" is a header-only library built on top of the "date.h" library which implements a proleptic Julian calendar which is fully interoperable with everything above.

  5. "islamic.h" is a header-only library built on top of the "date.h" library which implements a proleptic Islamic calendar which is fully interoperable with everything above.

Standardization

Slightly modified versions of "date.h" and "tz.h" were voted into the C++20 working draft at the Jacksonville FL meeting on 2018-03-17:

Build & Test

You will need CMake and a recent C++ compiler. Here follows a guide of how to build and test using the CMake Makefile generator.

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ../
cmake --build . --target testit # Consider '-- -j4' for multithreading
