Allow date validation

[senseq]

Date fields are often used in forms. Please add date format validation to fortress.

[alexweissman]

Dates come in many formats. What do you propose?

jQueryvalidation has the dateISO method: https://jqueryvalidation.org/dateISO-method/
Valitron has a generic date method, which accepts any parsable date string, or a DateTime object: https://github.com/vlucas/valitron/blob/master/src/Valitron/Validator.php#L563-L580

[senseq]

Can we use valitron's date method validations?

Since fortress is using Valitron, can these be used without any changes to
the code? Some examples or documentation would be appreciated.

Btw, we are using userfrosting and it's great!

Glad UF is working out for your business - I definitely had startups and small businesses in mind when I created it. Would you be interested in featuring your site in our gallery?

As for using Valitron's date method, sadly, the ServerSideValidator object (which itself extends Valitron) is not exposed through HTTPRequestFortress. However, we could probably expose it without breaking any backwards-compatibility. Let me see what I can do.
