Visibility improvements identified in the niche analysis: the dormant dateinfer/hi-dateinfer still pulls ~20k downloads/month, but searchers don't find fastdateinfer.

Changes

  • Description (PyPI summary + crates.io): now leads with the differentiator (detects strptime format, resolves ambiguous DD/MM vs MM/DD by consensus) and positions as a fast, maintained alternative to dateinfer / hi-dateinfer.
  • Keywords:
    • pyproject.toml (PyPI): added date-format, format-inference, strftime, dateinfer, dateutil, dayfirst, rust (now 13 terms people actually search).
    • Cargo.toml (crates.io, 5-keyword cap): swapped to date, datetime, dateinfer, strptime, parsing.

Metadata only — takes effect on the next PyPI/crates.io publish (no code change, no version bump).
