date: Rework argument processing
This pull request addresses several points on the argument processing of date:
- Enfore the mutual exclusivity of
--date,--file,--reference, and--resolution(not yet implemented). - Successive
--date,--fileand--referencearguments override their previous introduction.
This is still work in progress, as I also would like to fix the distinction between FORMAT positional arguments (starting with +) and date positional arguments.

Skipping an intermittent issue tests/tail/inotify-dir-recreate (passes in this run but fails in the 'main' branch)
Doesn't this duplicate some of the work in https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/pull/6142 ?

Congrats! The gnu test tests/rm/rm2 is no longer failing!
@RenjiSann it is still marked as draft, are you still working on it? thanks
I am not working on this anymore. I don't really remember the context of it either.
First, I'll try to finish the changes I want to bring to cksum before looking into another uutil.
