/// String representation for a Gregorian date in ISO-8601 format.
/** @warning Experimental. There may still be design problems, particularly
* when it comes to BC years.
*
* PostgreSQL supports a choice of date formats, but libpqxx does not. The
* other formats in turn support a choice of "month before day" versus "day
* before month," meaning that it's not necessarily known which format a given
* date is supposed to be. So I repeat: ISO-8601-style format only!
*
* Invalid dates will not convert. This includes February 29 on non-leap
* years, which is why it matters that `year_month_day` represents a
* _Gregorian_ date.
*
* The range of years is limited. At the time of writing, PostgreSQL 14
* supports years from 4713 BC to 294276 AD inclusive, and C++20 supports
* a range of 32767 BC to 32767 AD inclusive. So in practice, years must fall
* between 4713 BC and 32767 AD, inclusive.
*
* @warning Support for BC (or BCE) years is still experimental. I still need
* confirmation on this issue: it looks as if C++ years are astronomical years,
* which means they have a Year Zero. Regular BC/AD years do not have a year
* zero, so the year 1 AD follows directly after 1 BC.
*
* So, what to our calendars (and to PostgreSQL) is the year "0001 BC" seems to
* count as year "0" in a `std::chrono::year_month_day`. The year 0001 AD is
* still equal to 1 as you'd expect, and all AD years work normally, but all
* years before then are shifted by one. For instance, the year 543 BC would
* be -542 in C++.
