Add date support

[Kvasenok]

Problem

Suggested feature / solution

Would be cool to have full control of a datetime entity. The card in it's current state seems to have enough space for a date picker. We would have more precise control of a potential alarm (what this card is mostly used for) and, overall, this card could be the card for the whole datetime entity instead of utilizing only the "set time" functions.

Additional context

Thanks for the suggestion! And yeah, that's something I was considering during initial development, and it's a fair request. I didn't do it initially, because it increases complexity drastically.

Will have a bit of a marketing problem, should've called it datetime-picker-card 😅

Please!!! You'd be surprised how many more people are looking for a better datetime picker solution than what's available currently.

BTW would it be possible to have a "minute" picker?

Coming late to the party but I would like to second and third the option of picking dates in addition to just picking time. There is nothing out there that I was able to find that would be anywhere near as convenient as using the same underlying system for day/month/year controls! In any case, thank you very much for the time picker functionality as it is at the moment!

Is there any progress in this?

@gieljnssns unfortunately no.

This requires a decent amount of effort. I haven't had the time to work on time-picker-card. If someone wants to open a PR, I'd be happy to consult, review and merge.
