[XQZone General] convert date into marklogic date

[Jason Hunter]

Well you can't add time information if your string doesn't have it, but 
you can convert a simple date string to a dateTime instance like this:

xs:dateTime(xs:date("2005-03-03"))

Result is basically:

xs:dateTime("2005-03-03T00:00:00")

There's xdmp:strftime() at 
http://xqzone.marklogic.com/pubs/3.0/apidocs/Extension.html#strftime if 
you want to do nice formatting of dates/times.
