[Date] Parsing of DateOnly strings

[KennethHoff]

3.20 introduced z.string().DateTime() for cleaner string->DateTime parsing. However, it only supports strings containing both Date and Time

An API I'm working with includes only the Date part (today would be 2022-12-12). This API is written in C# using the DateOnly struct.

The built-in JavaScript new Date(<string>) does work with DateOnly strings, so I don't see a huge reason not to support it as well. I don't know what the API for it would be though, but the two most obvious ones that I could think of are the following:

1. An additional option in the string().DateTime() function: dateOnly: boolean
2. A separate string().Date() function (or string().DateOnly())

(As an aside, C# also has a TimeOnly struct, but I don't really see how that would be parseable into a JavaScript primitive)

Small correction - z.string().datetime() still returns a string, not a Date. I'm in favor of adding .date() and .time() methods for convenience, though using .regex for these is pretty straightforward as well.

Can I take a shot at these?
