Use DateTime objects in the database layer, not strings
Pass in DateTime objects for the date fields in the database instead
of formatted time strings. This provides better compatibility with
different database engines. Document in README the need to install
the DateTime::Format::* module corresponding to the DBD::* module used
for the server database.
