Done.

It exists only in upstream code, since I rename it to
howardhinnant-dateConfig.cmake with a patch. I believe I still need to
list in d/copyright, right?

Thanks for the suggestion :)
I enabled the tests, and most of them work. Unfortunately, when using
gcc instead of clang to build the tests, a few of them fail, see
https://github.com/HowardHinnant/date/issues/713 . Is it allowed to
force the use of Clang to build a certain package? If so, how can I do
that?
