date2index is buggy when used with dates outside the support.

Using a date before the first date in the time variable returns index -1.
Using a date after the last date in the time variable raises an error.

I've fixed this by replacing indices == -1 by 0, and those equal to N by
N-1, where N is the length of the time variable.

If this is OK with you, I'll commit those changes and the accompanying tests.
