Description

When artist has begin and end date set to the same year (with no months and days), then it's shown as lasting "0 days". Should be something like "A few months", "Under a year" or "1 year or less" imo.

Some examples (http://musicbrainz.org/search?query=begin:2010+AND+end:2010&type=artist&advanced=1)

Or we display nothing for those, maybe.
Instead of

Founded: 2010
Dissolved: 2010 (0 days)

we would have

Founded: 2010
Dissolved: 2010

Or even

Founded and Dissolved: 2010
