Use the derive macro to implement these.

In #267, I changed these to handwritten implementations. However, given the structure of MS-DOS date and time, I don't think this change was necessary.

This change improves the performance when comparing the order of DateTime.

Summary of Changes

Hello @sorairolake, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request refactors the DateTime struct by replacing its handwritten Ord and PartialOrd trait implementations with derived versions. The primary goal is to simplify the codebase and enhance the performance of DateTime comparisons by utilizing Rust's built-in derive capabilities for these traits.

Highlights

  • Refactoring DateTime Comparison: Replaced the manual implementations of the Ord and PartialOrd traits for the DateTime struct with #[derive(Ord, PartialOrd)]. This simplifies the code by leveraging Rust's automatic trait derivation.
  • Performance Improvement: This change is expected to improve the performance of DateTime comparisons, as derived trait implementations are often optimized by the compiler.

Code Review

This pull request refactors the DateTime struct to use derived implementations for Ord and PartialOrd, replacing the previous handwritten ones. This is a solid improvement, leveraging the lexicographical ordering of the MS-DOS date and time formats when packed into integers. This change correctly simplifies the code and improves comparison performance by replacing a sequence of expensive field extractions and comparisons with two simple integer comparisons. The logic is sound and the implementation is clean. I have no issues to report.

Use the derive macro to implement these.
