Timedelta operations are used in exactly one place in xray: speeding up decoding of dates from netCDF if a standard calendar is being used. Otherwise, that sort of stuff is left up to the user.

If dates with non-standard calendars can generally be most usefully expressed as a pandas.DatetimeIndex, then let's go ahead and default to decoding them into datetime64 arrays. The relevant function to modify is here (see also here) if you'd like to make a pull request!
