Construct a gMonthDay value from an item
value.
xs:gMonthDay(item $value) => gMonthDay
This is a constructor function that takes an item value as argument and
returns a value of type xs:gMonthDay. If the argument is a
literal, then the literal must be a valid lexical form of its type.
As specified in the respective section of the W3C recommendation
XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes, a value of type
xs:gMonthDay represents a recurring Gregorian day of the month as
defined in ISO 8601. The lexical form is --MM-DD, where
"MM" denotes the month, and
"DD" denotes the day. You can append an optional
time zone identifier. You may not omit any of the dashes.

This query generates valid values of type
xs:gMonthDay:
xs:gMonthDay("--04-23")
xs:gMonthDay("--04-23Z")
xs:gMonthDay("--04-23-01:00")
The last two queries use optional time zone identifiers: "Z" denoting UTC, and "-01:00" one hour past UTC.
