[Feature] Persian Calendar support

I have searched the existing feature requests, both open and closed, to make sure this is not a duplicate request.

The feature

In Iran, the reference date used in daily life is "Persian Calendar", which has different year start/end and months.
When sorting my photos, (It's now 75,000 of them), It's a big workload to convert their dates and organize them.

Good news: Gregorian/Persian dates can easily and reliably convert to each other with a very simple function/method (And good libraries and open source codes are already widely available on internet).

An option to use Persian calendar (of course: only during display, even only web display will be good enough) will be extremely helpful.

I don't know node.js and immich's project structure, but I'm a Java/C# dev myself. If the feature is approved, I can try to coordinate with your devs to provide and test the conversion functions

Thanks for studying the case. My request was not about date "format". It's about different "calendar". As you know, calendars can't convert via browsers.
Browsers can only change position of "mm" between first or second position.

Adding this feature can open possibilities for other calendars too: Chinese, Hijri, Jalali, Hebrew etc.

I'd highly appreciate it if you can take a second look into my request
