Usage
{{#invoke:Calendar date|function_name}}
--[[
Display Gregorian date of a holiday that moves year to year. Date data can be obtained from multiple sources as configured in Module:Calendar date/events
"localfile" = local data file (eg. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Module:Calendar_date/localfiles/Hanukkah)
"calculator" = user-supplied date calculator
"wikidata" = <tbd> for holidays with their own date entity page such as https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q51224536

--[[--------------------------< trimArg >-----------------------
trimArg returns nil if arg is "" while trimArg2 returns 'true' if arg is ""
trimArg2 is for args that might accept an empty value, as an on/off switch like nolink=

Makes a wikilink; when both link and display text is provided, returns a wikilink in the form [ [L|D] ]; if only
link is provided, returns a wikilink in the form [ [L] ]; if neither are provided or link is omitted, returns an
empty string.

--[[--------------------------< createTracking >-----------------------
Return data in track[] ie. tracking categories
]]

--[[--------------------------< isValidDate >----------------------------------------------------
Returns true if date is after 31 December 1899 , not after 2100, and represents a valid date
(29 February 2017 is not a valid date). Applies Gregorian leapyear rules. All arguments are required.

df = mdy, dmy, iso, ymd
]]
local function makeDate(year, month, day, df, format)

--[[--------------------------< dateOffset >-----------------------
Given a 'origdate' in ISO format, return the date offset by number of days in 'offset'
eg. given "2018-02-01" and "-1" it will return "2018-01-30"
On error, return origdate
