*** ** * ** ***
A class that represents one freeze period which repeats *annually* . A freeze period has
two `https://developer.android.com/reference/java/time/MonthDay` values that define the start and end dates of the period, both inclusive. If
the end date is earlier than the start date, the period is considered wrapped around the
year-end. As far as freeze period is concerned, leap year is disregarded and February 29th should
be treated as if it were February 28th: so a freeze starting or ending on February 28th is
identical to a freeze starting or ending on February 29th. When calulating the length of a freeze
or the distance bewteen two freee periods, February 29th is also ignored.
