Date arithmetic use case

Excel directly supports arithmetic operations on non-numeric textcells.
A1='2012/01/02
A2=A1-1
will display A2 as '2012/01/01'

This is not possible with POI, also the DATEVALUE() function is currently not
offered.

Attached is a testcase, which exemplifies the above use case.
