sedate 1.3.0

Date/time helper functions used by various Seantis packages.

Date/time helper functions used by various Seantis packages.

There are projects like Arrow or Delorean which provide ways to work with timezones without having to think about it too much.

Seantis doesn’t use them because we want to reason about these things, to ensure they are correct, and partly because of self-loathing.

Adding another layer makes this reasoning harder.
