Vadim Zeitlin 78d09e2e90 Document and test wxDatePickerCtrl::SetRange() date-clamping behaviour.
Document that the current value of the control is adjusted if it doesn't lie
in the newly set range and add a unit test to check for this, now that it
actually passes under all platforms, after the previous commits.

/**
@class wxDatePickerCtrl
This control allows the user to select a date. Unlike wxCalendarCtrl, which
is a relatively big control, wxDatePickerCtrl is implemented as a small
window showing the currently selected date. The control can be edited using
the keyboard, and can also display a popup window for more user-friendly
date selection, depending on the styles used and the platform.
It is only available if @c wxUSE_DATEPICKCTRL is set to 1.
@beginStyleTable
@style{wxDP_SPIN}
Creates a control without a month calendar drop down but with
spin-control-like arrows to change individual date components. This
style is not supported by the generic version.
@style{wxDP_DROPDOWN}
Creates a control with a month calendar drop-down part from which
the user can select a date. This style is not supported in OSX/Cocoa
native version.
@style{wxDP_DEFAULT}
Creates a control with the style that is best supported for the
current platform (currently wxDP_SPIN under Windows and OSX/Cocoa
and wxDP_DROPDOWN elsewhere).
@style{wxDP_ALLOWNONE}
With this style, the control allows the user to not enter any valid
date at all. Without it - the default - the control always has some
valid date. This style is not supported in OSX/Cocoa native version.
@style{wxDP_SHOWCENTURY}
Forces display of the century in the default date format. Without
this style the century could be displayed, or not, depending on the
default date representation in the system. This style is not
supported in OSX/Cocoa native version currently.
@endStyleTable
As can be seen from the remarks above, most of the control style are only
supported in the native MSW implementation. In portable code it's
recommended to use @c wxDP_DEFAULT style only, possibly combined with @c
wxDP_SHOWCENTURY (this is also the style used by default if none is
specified).
@beginEventEmissionTable{wxDateEvent}
@event{EVT_DATE_CHANGED(id, func)}
This event fires when the user changes the current selection in the
control.

The initial value of the control, if an invalid date (such as the

Initial position.

Initial size. If left at default value, the control chooses its own
best size by using the height approximately equal to a text control

The window style, see the description of the styles in the class

Validator which can be used for additional date checks.
