Requirements:

[x] write function in dlme-transform/lib/macros/normalize.rb that takes a date in the form 'yyyy' or 'yyyy, yyyy' as input and returns an array of year values representing a range of time
[ ] collection level macros will take data in whatever form and convert it to '[yyyy]' or '[yyyy, yyyy]'. Need to write a test to apply to each of these collection level macros to ensure that the output is one of these forms. A validation error should be raised if not.

The "year_array" method is included in PR #245; Jacob and I will take a look at each collection and determine what additional general date methods are necessary, as well as specific ones.
