inline-date-pins first build

nowline v1

// Inline date pins on `after:` / `before:` — pin an item, group, or
// parallel to a specific calendar date without declaring a named
// `anchor`. The renderer paints a small `calendar` glyph on the
// entity's left (`after`) or right (`before`): in an item bar's top
// corner, or in a group's or parallel's title row. See
// `specs/dsl.md` "Inline date pins" and `specs/rendering.md`
// "Inline-date glyph".
