 * @name lightFormat
 * @category Common Helpers
 * @summary Format the date.
 *
 * @description
 * Return the formatted date string in the given format. Unlike `format`,
 * `lightFormat` doesn't use locales and outputs date using the most popular tokens.
 *
 * > ⚠️ Please note that the `lightFormat` tokens differ from Moment.js and other libraries.
 * > See: https://github.com/date-fns/date-fns/blob/master/docs/unicodeTokens.md
 *
 * The characters wrapped between two single quotes characters (') are escaped.
 * Two single quotes in a row, whether inside or outside a quoted sequence, represent a 'real' single quote.
 *
 * Format of the string is based on Unicode Technical Standard #35:
 * https://www.unicode.org/reports/tr35/tr35-dates.html#Date_Field_Symbol_Table
 *

 * @typeParam DateType - The `Date` type, the function operates on. Gets inferred from passed arguments. Allows to use extensions like [`UTCDate`](https://github.com/date-fns/utc).
 *
 * @param date - The original date
 * @param format - The string of tokens
 *
 * @returns The formatted date string
 *
 * @throws `Invalid time value` if the date is invalid
 * @throws format string contains an unescaped latin alphabet character
 *
 * @example
 * const result = lightFormat(new Date(2014, 1, 11), 'yyyy-MM-dd')
 * //=> '2014-02-11'
