Research direction
Begin with the existing InputPin traits in embedded-hal and the no_std constraints described in the issue; compare the chrono::Datetime and ds323x::DateTime APIs. No files or tests are named, so first establish the trait scope and compatibility expectations with maintainers. Done would be an agreed design followed by a corresponding PR.

Description
What are your thoughts on Datetime, Time, Date etc traits? They seem like a good fit because they're not available natively on no_std, are a common feature. It would be nice to be able to write general functions using these traits, instead of platform-specific ones.
Ie, make it so you don't have to hard-code functions to accept chrono::Datetime (eg a computer) or ds323x::DateTime (eg ds3231).
This feels higher-level than existing traits, but I'd argue it fits well with the concept of code portability across devices, which is a big (the main?) draw of this project. I we can currently write device-agnostic code using InputPin, but not dates/times/datetimes.
If y'all like it, I'll draft a PR.
