with date-only input, issue #76

interfere with the 3-argument version

0.3.310 Jun 2015 12:56
major feature:
Features:

This results in: dateadd dateconv datediff dategrep dateround
dateseq datesort datetest and datezone

- provide single digit years through _y
- allow rounding of ISO-week dates (ywd) to week numbers

Bugfixes:
- octave/matlab code is distributed fully

wildcarded ymd dates
