[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #47627] datenum input validation should be stricter

[Rik]

Follow-up Comment #22, bug #47627 (project octave):

I think Octave should always do reasonable input validation to prevent Garbage
In / Garbage Out calculations.  An additional reason for tight input
validation is that many users of Octave are not professional programmers (they
are scientists, engineers, etc.) and so it can be very helpful to have warning
messages when they are doing something that probably isn't right.

@markus: Fine with me if you push your small patch to stable branch.
