Add future and past providers to datetime

[sobolevn]

I would love to see the same feature from Datetime ported to both FutureDatetime and PastDatetime providers.

I hope that you will get the idea from the class names 🙂

@ceccoemi Any chance you can work on it? I'm about to publish a new version and this feature will be a great addition in the changelog.

@lk-geimfari yes, I should be able to work on it. Give me 2/3 days

@ceccoemi Great! Thank you very much! Feel free to ask your questions about the feature to @sobolevn.

@sobolevn @lk-geimfari a couple of questions.

What do you think about adding the FutureDatetime and PastDatetime providers as subclass of the Datetime provider? In that case, is it ok if I include them in the same module date.py?

My idea is to override the methods that accepts the argument start and to set it to a moment in the future/past.

Sounds like a plan!
