Flac and vorbis metadata reader do not read DATE=YYYY-MM-DD fields correctly

Description

I've noticed that .ogg and .flac files that have a DATE field value with more than just a year (e.g. DATE=2008-09-01) are not read correctly. The year field in the db just shows 0.

According to the vorbis comment documentation that I have found, the DATE field may contain a ISO 8601 formatted date or time followed by a space followed by any text.

I would settle just to get the first four characters read as the year though.
