The existing format_date plugin in core only allows one from format. I've seen on some occasions source data using a combination of j/n/Y and d/m/Y formats, and the existing plugin doesn't like that.
Use the j/n/Y from format with a date like 31/08/2021.
Allow passing multiple formats, e.g. j/n/Y and d/m/Y.
