Feature Request

Can add some tokens in table Supported Tokens for parsing the type of date: "yesterday", "today", "month ago", etc?

This seems directly related to #360. We recently got a PR adding support for this (https://github.com/arrow-py/arrow/pull/772), but it did not account for locales and became inactive, so we decided to close it. If you would like to submit a PR for this, using https://github.com/arrow-py/arrow/pull/772 as a template, we would love to review it.
