Introduce a DateField type and rename Date component for consistency.

[chrissnyder2337]

Introduce a DateField type and rename Date component to follow the naming pattern used by all other JSS field components.

• This PR follows the Contribution Guide
• Changelog updated

Description / Motivation

Compare Date.tsx to Text.tsx, Image.tsx, Link.tsx, File.tsx, or RichText.tsx. The naming of the Date component is inconsistent with the other field components and it is missing the interface/type like the others have. Ensuring consistency in naming improves the code readability and can reduce issues when developing new components, improving the developer experience.

Testing Details

• Unit Test Added
• Manual Test/Other (Please elaborate)

Types of changes

• Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)
• New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
• Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing functionality to change)

Hi @chrissnyder2337
I sync'd this propsal with latest changed and checked it in some depth. I think I know why the decision for the naming was taken in favor of DateField. Having it as Date will confict with the built in Date type in typescript. Currently it only fails the component itself (you can see it in the latest changes, one unit test will fail), but renaming for everyone may cause more widespread problems.
With this, I'm inclined to close this PR. Regardless, I appreciate you opening this suggestion and providing a solution - I apologize it takes us a long time to get around to properly reviewing such contributions.
