[ruby/date] `Date._<format>(nil)` should return an empty Hash

Fix: https://github.com/ruby/date/issues/39

This is how versions previous to 3.2.1 behaved and Active Support
currently rely on this behavior.

https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/90357af08048ef5076730505f6e7b14a81f33d0c/activesupport/lib/active_support/values/time_zone.rb#L383-L384

Any Rails application upgrading to date `3.2.1` might run into unexpected errors.
