EnhancedDatePicker component for Vaadin Flow

This project is fork of DatePicker component for Vaadin Flow. On top of basic functionality of DatePicker, it has ability to format date by pattern. Formatting is done by JavaScript library date-fns v2.0.0-beta.2. More information about supported formatting paterns can be found here: https://date-fns.org/v2.0.0-beta.2/docs/format

Formatting pattern can be set using method setPattern(String formattingPattern). For example:

EnhancedDatePicker datePicker;
datePicker.setPattern("dd-MMM-yyyy");

or by using constructor: new EnhancedDatePicker(LocalDate.now(), "dd-MMM-yyyy");

Patterns used for parsing user's input can be set using method setParsers(String ... parserPatterns). For example:

EnhancedDatePicker datePicker;
datePicker.setParsers("dd-MM-yy", "dd/MM/yy", "dd/MM/yyyy");

or by using constructor: new EnhancedDatePicker(LocalDate.now(), "dd-MMM-yyyy", "dd-MM-yy", "dd/MM/yy", "dd/MM/yyyy");

This component can be used in combination with <vaadin-date-picker>. In HTML/JS template you can add <vaadin-date-picker id="datePickerId"></vaadin-date-picker> and in Java side, you can bind it to EnhancedDatePicker like this:

@Id("datePickerId")
private EnhancedDatePicker datePicker;

NOTE: Localization in this component is also done by DateFns and some locales for some patterns are not stable: for example Russian and French for pattern MMM(it adds '.' in the end of month and then it can not parse it back)
