feat(android): datepicker range

[m1ga]

Adds datePickerRange: true to the datepicker to allow to pick a date range. Since we are using the MaterialDatePicker it is very easy to add.

var win = Ti.UI.createWindow({});
var btn = Ti.UI.createButton({
	title: "pick"
});
win.add(btn);
win.open();

btn.addEventListener("click", function() {
	Ti.UI.backgroundColor = 'white';

	var picker = Ti.UI.createPicker({
		type: Ti.UI.PICKER_TYPE_DATE,
		minDate: new Date(2022, 3, 1),
		maxDate: new Date(2022, 11, 31),
		from: new Date(2022, 3, 2),
		to: new Date(2022, 3, 10),
		datePickerRange: true,
		title: "Pick a range..."
	});

	picker.showDatePickerDialog({
		value: new Date(),
		callback: function(e) {
			if (e.cancel) {
				Ti.API.info('User canceled dialog');
			} else {
				Ti.API.info('User selected date: ' + e.from + " - " + e.to);
			}
		}
	});
});

It will use either value or from and to for the selected range.

Todo:

• change the property datePickerRange name?
• documentation

In case it helps: This is how we're currently using the date range picker!

Is datePickerRange: true when from AND to is set?

Is datePickerRange: true when from AND to is set?

no, it doesn't work this way automatically. That will still create the normal datepicker and ignores those parameters.
