Meetup - 5th Monday

[kytrinyx]

There is an interesting edge case in the meetup problem:
some months have five Mondays.

March of 2015 has five Mondays (the fifth being March 30th), whereas
February of 2015 does not, and so should produce an error.

Thanks, @JKesMc9tqIQe9M for pointing out the edge case.

As someone mentioned in the original issue:

You can't regularly schedule a meetup on the fifth week of every month because February usually doesn't have a fifth week at all (and no month ever has a full fifth week). It's nonsense to even support "fifth" as an input in the first place. I think that first-fourth, last, teenth are the only scheduling inputs that should be supported.

So this might be one of those "oops, maybe not" situations.

Sounds good.
