DatePicker to have additional expressions - modelValue and viewValue

[manishbafna]

Actual Behavior:

• What is the issue? *Right now, the datepicker is using provider for evaluation. In case of the timezone and other details coming from server, it will be difficult to manipulate. (In some cases, the date is coming is epoch format, sometimes, MM-DD-YYYY) .
• What is the expected behavior?: Have additional expressions for the directive.
  ModelValue -> Expression is evaluated and stored as model value
  ViewValue -> Expression is evaluated and shown in the UI.

With #9260 working, it would be great to get this as well. We're working on a project where being able to have YYYY/MM/DD on most date fields, but MMM-YY on month-only date fields would be great. It's a little confusing when you select a month but the date displayed shows the day.

Yes, the idea was to get this in after #9260.
