Uncaught exception when date in wrong format

[ErykPiasecki07]

If some utt functionality is used incorrectly, it provides quite a nice output like: "unrecognized argument" or something like this, however that's not the case with date usage in utt report.

To replicate simply run utt report 2022-02-20 or really anything that doesn't match %Y-%m-%d format.

The result will be:

More desired behavior would be some user-friendly error message.

Hi @ErykPiasecki07, the error message is indeed not user-friendly. If you are interested you can create a PR that addresses it (with tests).
