Usage:

indicator_date_correct_format() -> [status, msg, payload, meta]

Dates are specified in the correct specified format, e.g. YYYY-MM-DD.

YYYY
YYYY-MM
YYYY-MM-DD
YYYY-MM-DD"T"hh:mm<TZD>
YYYY-MM-DD"T"hh:mm:ss<TZD>
YYYY-MM-DD"T"hh:mm:ss.s<TZD>

The "T" marker is optional. TZD is time zone designator (either "Z", or "+hh:mm" or "-hh:mm").

This function is not exported.

No arguments.

Returns an enveloped result (an array).
