Description

### 🚀 The feature, motivation and pitch

Currently Obsidian.nvim has the `:ObsidianToday` and `:ObsidianYesterday` commands which open or create daily notes, but there are none (at least I found) that can do so for any given date. `:ObsidianDailies` doesn't seem to be able to create notes. There should be a command like `:ObsidianDaily 2024 9 28` . and use natural language parsing to make it flexiable, like "the 2nd [of the month]" or "last friday"

Research direction

Start by reading the implementations and command registration for :ObsidianToday, :ObsidianYesterday, and :ObsidianDailies. Define how an explicit date and natural-language input should be parsed, then verify that the command can open or create the corresponding daily note for each supported form.
