Clean up date handling,
as a first step to get rid of the frequent petty warnings in this area: - always store dates as strings, not as seconds since the Epoch - for input, try the three most common formats everywhere - for unrecognized format, just pass the date though verbatim - when there is no date at all, still use the current date Originally triggered by a one-line patch from Tim van der Molen, <tbvdm at xs4all dot nl>, which is included here. Feedback and OK on manual parts from jmc@. "please check this in" kristaps@
