add date creation methods?

[bendavies]

these can return false:
http://php.net/manual/en/function.date-create-from-format.php
http://php.net/manual/en/function.date-create-immutable-from-format.php

there are probably others? WDYT?

...and what about the DateTime and DateTimeImmutable classes? They "convert" invalid date strings which is even worse than false and just log it in DateTime::getLastErrors
Or is this package restricted to functions?

@bendavies You are perfectly right.
The fact is I generate the Safe functions from the PHP doc (there are too many functions to do that manually).
date_create_from_format is an alias of DateTime::createFromFormat and is not documented as the other functions. My code generator for Safe doesn't know yet how to handle the aliases (or the classes).

It is definitely on the TODO for Safe v1 though. Any help is welcome by the way :)
Also, this is directly related to #7

we now have custom datetime classes in safe in 1.0.0-beta1. Don't hesitate to test them
