year represents a year in the civil calendar.
It can represent values in the range [min(), max()].
It can be constructed with any int value, which will be subsequently truncated to fit into year's unspecified internal storage.
year is Cpp17EqualityComparable (Table 22) and Cpp17LessThanComparable (Table 23), and participates in basic arithmetic with years objects, which represent a difference between two year objects.
year is a trivially copyable and standard-layout class type.
