CDF Epoch should return datetime objects #16

Converting the EPOCH to readable date is good, but if instead of an array of separate components, if the modules could also return an array of datetime objects, that would be great, and make a lot of tasks simpler.

I also think it should return datetime or datetime64 by default with the commonly-used functions.
