Hello all :-) 

Before going through and doing the work, I wanted to ask if the project 
would be open to a contribution for the following additions to the v8::Date 
C++ API

1. `v8::Date::ToUTCString()` ... this would be nearly identical to the 
existing `v8::Date::ToISOString()` method except it would generate the UTC 
format. This requires only a couple lines of code added to api.cc.

2. `static v8::Date::Parse(context, string)` ... this would create a new 
`v8::Date` (like `v8::Date::New(..)` from an input string (equivalent to 
`new Date(string)` in JS). This would likely require moving the 
`ParseDateTimeString(...)` private method currently located in 
builtins-date.cc to a public API that can be accessed from api.cc.

Currently, an embedder wishing to accessing these has to grab the 
appropriate methods off the `Date` prototype in javascript which is a 
bit... cumbersome.

I've implemented a draft patch of the suggested APIs 
here: https://github.com/cloudflare/workerd/pull/1724/files
