This PR adds different modes of selection to the calendar.

  • CalendarSingle
    This is the same as the current mode. Only one date can be selected at once.
  • CalendarMulti
    Multiple random dates can be selected at the same time
  • CalendarRange
    Select a beginning and end to select all dates in between those dates.

To achieve this change some compatibility breaking changes had to be made:

  1. SelectedDates field has beend added to the calendar struct
    Here all dates that the user will select are stored no matter what mode has been chosen. This can also be freely manipulated as it is an exported field. When calling Refresh the display is updated.
  2. OnSelected has been replaced by OnChanged OnChanged has been added as a callback for the new modes
    The OnChanged callback is now called everytime the user presses a button and the selected dates are changed. While OnSelected is called with the clicked date if the date is part of the selected dates.
  3. Selected date buttons are highlighted using the HighImportance
    Since there isn't another way to give buttons custom colors right now. I used the Importance system to signal the user which dates have been selected. And if a button is not selected it uses the previous LowImportance.

This also takes care of #54

I would expect this could be made backward compatible by defaulting to single data selection. Then a field or method could change this after constructor returns?

I changed the constructor to default to single mode. It is more backwards compatible, but not completely since the callback requires a slice instead of a single variable.

Perhaps OnSelected is still valid, as is. And a new callback (OnChanged?) might provide the ability for the slice/range types of callback?

@andydotxyz I readded the OnSelected callback and changed the default constructor to the way it was before. For the Single mode it works the same way and for the Multi and Range mode I called the callback everytime a date is pressed and part of the selected dates.

that have been selected are now inside the SelectedDates slice of the
calendar. A date button is colored using HighImportance if it is
selected. And the OnSelect callback has been replaced by the OnChanged
callback.
