------------------------------------------------------------
I think we should be consistent with other data stores/formats if possible.
Impala (IMPALA-6169) and Hive
(https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+Types#LanguageManualTypes-date)
are also important considerations when Implementing this feature.
Unifying the integral date representation would be good historical data storage
and offloads.

Limiting Date's to only values > 0000-01-01 would not be good for historical
data storage and offloads.

> {{DATE}} is a timezone-agnostic measure of the current date (without time of
> day) in YYYY-MM-DD form. The range of values typically supported is
> 0000-01-01 to 9999-12-31. [Parquet has
> implemented|https://github.com/apache/parquet-format/blob/master/LogicalTypes.md#date]
> {{DATE}} as a logical type mapped to int32, represented as the number of
> days since the start of the UNIX epoch (i.e. January 1, 1970).
> Support for {{DATE}} is currently being added to Impala; we should also add
> support for it to Kudu.
