Ideas

1. New date formatting with Intl.DateTimeFormat language support

Use this for formatting, and get language support: https://jsbin.com/velaqabivo/1/edit?js,console carbon().locale('de').format('F') // => Januar

2. New relative formatting with Intl.RelativeTimeFormat

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Intl/RelativeTimeFormat carbon().locale('en').relformat() // "in 3 days" or "3 days ago"
