add form helpers for date and time HTML5 input types
To complement the existing helpers we have for HTML5 input types like email, url, telephone, number, range and search, this patch adds simple helpers with tests for all of the date/time input types:
date, month, week, time, datetime and datetime-local
By virtue of the usual helper support for passing HTML options,
you may of course specify the new attributes that these inputs
support:
<%= date_field :todo, :due_date, :min => Date.today.rfc3339 %>
Patch is also available on a branch on GitHub for the pull/merge convenience you dig the most :-)

Thomas van der PolPatch does what it says on the tin, tests are correct and exhaustive.
I'd suggest a patch to http://guides.rubyonrails.org/form_helpers.html once this goes through describing the new functionality.

Ches MartinCool, I can rebase on current master and verify tests if it helps. Also happy to take a look into a doc patch for the Form Helpers guide as Thomas suggested.

Ches, please do, after you have tested it out I will test it. If all goes well, I will push it up the chain.
Thanks
