 * Syntax :
 * or
 * 24 years, 213 days

 * 35 years, 13 days returns "35 years, 13 days"


 * When using this template to calculate a person's age at death or a person's age on a specified date (rather than the person's current age), please substitute it into the page.
 * Example: 1989


 * Note :
 * This template does not check for incorrect input:
 * returns "" (surplus days do not count as extra months)
 * returns "" (surplus months do not count as extra years)

Note also that due to leap years the measure "years and days" fails to be fully additive. The following example is not an error, but each calculation uses a different definition of "year", either 365 days or 366:
 * 1 year, 4 days returns "1 year, 4 days"

but split up:
 * 3 days returns "3 days"
 * 1 year, 1 day returns "1 year, 1 day"
