Description
The `arrow_vendored::date` library allows us to write date/time formatting routines relatively easily, but it may throw exceptions or return silently erroneous data (see ARROW-12011). We should audit all our uses or date/time formatting routines from that library and make sure we don't let corner cases slip through.
