Usage

This is invoked as such:

{{Signpost archive|2023-07-17|2023-08-01|2023-08-15}}

This summons a TemplateStyles from Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Templates/Signpost-header/styles.css and uses it to style and create the Signpost header.

Uses these divs and these classes, contained in this order:

signpost-header nomobile noprint (container div, no content in the div itself)
- signpost-header-heading (File:Signpost2.svg)
- signpost-header-subheadings (container div, no content in the div itself)
  - signpost-header-volume (volume number, on left, e.g. "Volume 19")
  - signpost-header-issue (issue number, on right, e.g. "Issue 16")
  - signpost-header-date (date of issue, in center, e.g. "15 August 2023")
- signpost-header-subsubheadings (empty div -- this can be used for whatever nonsense by the frontend)

Note that signpost-header-volume, signpost-header-issue and signpost-header-date can actually just be whatever random stuff -- and, in fact, some templates (like {{Signpost archive}}) do call the header template with stuff other than volumes and issues in those locations.
