Counts the days from today, or any date you choose, to the next Labor Day, with its date and day of the week.

Method: Find the first date of Labor Day on or after the start date, then count the days from the start date to it.
- US Labor Day is the first Monday of September.
- Start dates from January 1, 1986 to December 31, 2400 work, because the US federal holiday rules used here start in 1986.
- The start date itself is not counted: from the day before, the count is 1; on the day itself, it is 0.
- Dates are calendar days with no time of day, so a time zone or a daylight-saving change never adds or loses a day.
