Support more date syntax #98

I have no idea how to create entries for dates not in the current month. I tried things like "Sep 1", "September 1", "0901", "09/01", "01/09", but none of them is recognized.

We use the ISO syntax, the following syntax should work

2022-12-07 for next year
12-07 for december in this year
07 for this month

Thanks for the instruction! Would you like to consider adding more syntax? I think many similar apps have this feature. There is usually no trouble in recognizing dates in OmniFocus or Apple Reminder no matter what syntax you use.
