/**
 * Formats a date value to a string based on the requested format.
 *
 * WARNINGS:
 * - this pipe is marked as pure hence it will not be re-evaluated when the input is mutated.
 *   Instead users should treat the date as an immutable object and change the reference when the
 *   pipe needs to re-run (this is to avoid reformatting the date on every change detection run
 *   which would be an expensive operation).
 * - this pipe uses the Internationalization API. Therefore it is only reliable in Chrome and Opera
 *   browsers.
 *
 * ## Usage
 *
 *     expression | date[:format]
 *
 * where `expression` is a date object or a number (milliseconds since UTC epoch) or an ISO string
 * (https://www.w3.org/TR/NOTE-datetime) and `format` indicates which date/time components to
 * include:
 *
 *  | Component | Symbol | Short Form   | Long Form         | Numeric   | 2-digit   |
 *  |-----------|:------:|--------------|-------------------|-----------|-----------|
 *  | era       |   G    | G (AD)       | GGGG (Anno Domini)| -         | -         |
 *  | year      |   y    | -            | -                 | y (2015)  | yy (15)   |
 *  | month     |   M    | MMM (Sep)    | MMMM (September)  | M (9)     | MM (09)   |
 *  | day       |   d    | -            | -                 | d (3)     | dd (03)   |
 *  | weekday   |   E    | EEE (Sun)    | EEEE (Sunday)     | -         | -         |
 *  | hour      |   j    | -            | -                 | j (13)    | jj (13)   |
 *  | hour12    |   h    | -            | -                 | h (1 PM)  | hh (01 PM)|
 *  | hour24    |   H    | -            | -                 | H (13)    | HH (13)   |
 *  | minute    |   m    | -            | -                 | m (5)     | mm (05)   |
 *  | second    |   s    | -            | -                 | s (9)     | ss (09)   |
 *  | timezone  |   z    | -            | z (Pacific Standard Time)| -  | -         |
 *  | timezone  |   Z    | Z (GMT-8:00) | -                 | -         | -         |
 *
 * In javascript, only the components specified will be respected (not the ordering,
 * punctuations, ...) and details of the formatting will be dependent on the locale.
 * On the other hand in Dart version, you can also include quoted text as well as some extra
 * date/time components such as quarter. For more information see:
 * https://www.dartdocs.org/documentation/intl/0.13.0/intl/DateFormat-class.html
 *
 * `format` can also be one of the following predefined formats:
 *
 *  - `'medium'`: equivalent to `'yMMMdjms'` (e.g. Sep 3, 2010, 12:05:08 PM for en-US)
 *  - `'short'`: equivalent to `'yMdjm'` (e.g. 9/3/2010, 12:05 PM for en-US)
 *  - `'fullDate'`: equivalent to `'yMMMMEEEEd'` (e.g. Friday, September 3, 2010 for en-US)
 *  - `'longDate'`: equivalent to `'yMMMMd'` (e.g. September 3, 2010)
 *  - `'mediumDate'`: equivalent to `'yMMMd'` (e.g. Sep 3, 2010 for en-US)
 *  - `'shortDate'`: equivalent to `'yMd'` (e.g. 9/3/2010 for en-US)
 *  - `'mediumTime'`: equivalent to `'jms'` (e.g. 12:05:08 PM for en-US)
 *  - `'shortTime'`: equivalent to `'jm'` (e.g. 12:05 PM for en-US)
 *
 * Timezone of the formatted text will be the local system timezone of the end-users machine.
 *
 * ### Examples
 *
 * Assuming `dateObj` is (year: 2015, month: 6, day: 15, hour: 21, minute: 43, second: 11)
 * in the _local_ time and locale is 'en-US':
 *
 * ```
 *     {{ dateObj | date }}               // output is 'Jun 15, 2015'
 *     {{ dateObj | date:'medium' }}      // output is 'Jun 15, 2015, 9:43:11 PM'
 *     {{ dateObj | date:'shortTime' }}   // output is '9:43 PM'
 *     {{ dateObj | date:'mmss' }}        // output is '43:11'
 * ```
 *
