   Alternatively, if a type is generated as "type": "string", and some unknown "format", it should at least type as a string rather than erroring.

       raise TypeError(f"Unknown type: {schema.type}")
   TypeError: Unknown type: DataType.STRING

   ✅ Implemented in PR #122

   Date-only type support has been added! String fields with format: "date" now generate datetime.date type.

   Usage

   OpenAPI Spec:

   {
     "birth_date": {
       "type": "string",
       "format": "date"
     }
   }

   Generated Code:

   from datetime import date
   
   class Person(BaseModel):
       birth_date: date

   Requirements

   • Requires use_orjson=True when generating code (same as other format conversions like UUID and datetime)
   • Falls back to str type when orjson is disabled

   Implementation

   The feature leverages the refactored _handle_format_conversions() function from #98, making it a clean 9-line addition in a single location.

   Testing

   • ✅ test_date_format_generates_date_type: Verifies proper date type generation
   • ✅ test_date_format_without_orjson: Verifies str fallback behavior
   • ✅ All 252 tests pass

   The feature will be available once PR #122 is merged.
