Shift the base date for the Gregorian calendar's calculations
Internally it was using the start of March 4801 BCE and then adjusting the year by 4800; instead, use the start of March 1 BCE and save those adjustments. This incidentally aligns better with the Milankovic calendar's calculations. Change-Id: Ic64b4e1d4f65bbf1973a77f830e68f05f7949f4d Reviewed-by: Thiago Macieira <thiago.macieira@intel.com>
