Tomasz Kamiński 328cecaa56 Fixed addition of multi-year duration to year_month.
* Added new overloads for operator+/- between year_month and duration
  that is convertible to years, so it is better candidate for operands
  that are convertible to both years and months. To preserve
  functionality, this operator is conditionally noexcept.

* Reworked year_month_day, year_month_day_last, year_month_weekday,
  and year_month_weekday_last.

* Added tests for this new functionality.

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
