Oh dear, I think I've been making an off-by-one error with rdays all
this time.

Proposal:  Minimum US RDAY

Amend Rule 2-1 (NTime) by replacing this text:  {

A duration to the effect of "X rdays", where X is a number, shall be
interpreted to mean the duration ends after X occurrences of midnight
UTC.

} with this text:  {

A duration to the effect of "X rdays", where X is a number, shall be
interpreted to mean the duration ends at the end of the rday after X
occurrences of midnight UTC.

}
