Details:

The datenum doco contains warnings about pre-1582 Julain calendars and leap
seconds. If we're warning about that, we should probably warn about issues
with DST transition times, which are probably a lot more likely to crop up in
practice.

This patch adds a warning about bad datenums near DST transitions.
