DATE metadata field

[comcon1]

• Create a script retrieving DATE from Zenodo API
• Add DATE to Simulation metadata
• Create a script retrieving DATE from CrossRef API
• Add DATE to Experiment metadata which has ARTICLE_DOI or DATA_DOI
• Add DATE to Experiment metadata which doesn't have any public DOI

I would suggest to use the datacite API instead of the zenodo API for the data doi dates https://datacite-metadata-schema.readthedocs.io/en/4.5/properties/date/

crossref is heterogenous and the dates one can retrieve from the https://api.crossref.org/works/[DOI] endpoint vary between journals/publishers, so we might need some fuzzy logic there.

I was not planning to add code to repo. It's just how I see the task could be done. Will you be able to take it? Best regards, Alex Sent from [Proton Mail](https://proton.me/mail/home) for Android.

I can. Should it be publication date (if possible)?

[comcon1]

You can discuss it with Markus, but I would say that for simulations it's a zenodo's date of the last version or DATA COLLECTION if available. You can start with experiments. There it is a date of publication if publication is available. It's more straightforward Best regards, Alex Sent from [Proton Mail](https://proton.me/mail/home) for Android.

@korbinib thanx for the first PR! Can you please drop your retrieval script to Discussions so that we have it somehow.

One could take a similar approach to add LICENSE and AUTHORS
