format_date

`dplyr::case_when()` will check all RHS expressions on the input, this means if
these expressions return warnings, they will happen even then the input doesn't
doesn't satisfy the LHS. For this reason, I had to 'quiet' all `lubridate` functions.
This `format_date()` function was tested with the inputs in the examples, all gave the
expected returned value, so there should be no issues.

The normal process of creating clinical study slides is that
a statistician manually type in the numbers from outputs and a
separate statistician to double check the typed in numbers. This
process is time consuming, resource intensive, and error prone.
Automatic slide generation is a solution to address these issues. It
reduces the amount of work and the required time when creating slides,
and reduces the risk of errors from manually typing or copying numbers
from the output to slides. It also helps users to avoid unnecessary
stress when creating large amounts of slide decks in a short time
window.
