Calendar note file compatibility and file renaming

Similar to the [note reference feature request](https://feedback.noteplan.co/general-feature-request/p/choos…), it would be nice if NotePlan 3 used `yyyy-mm-dd.md` naming convention like Obsidian and VSCode Foam do. The disconnect between `yyymmdd.md` and `[[yyyy-mm-dd]]` is a limitation for note mobility, both out of and in to NP3. I'd love to see an automated renaming of the Calendar files on next launch or another option in `Settings>Files` like there is for renaming existing notes.

Brad While I totally agree, and use the `yyyy-mm-dd` format for ALL my date usage throughout NotePlan, I think making a change like this at this stage of the game may be more work. FWIW, as someone who works with dates ALL THE TIME during my career (I am a software developer) and it is the ISO 8601 standard for displaying dates. https://www.w3.org/QA/Tips/iso-date

Mike Erickson: edited my post - my intention was that it should be same for the view and the filename. In other PMKs those align where NP3 displays one and names the files another.
