feature: a new option "exactInput" - allowing the value to be set between steps

[tenglongroy]

issue #436, inspired by @janein , hoping to allow the value to be able to set between steps. The value in tooltip also reflects the actual value.

Hi @tenglongroy, thanks for contributing. I think there is value in this feature, but it might be better implemented as an optional argument to the set method. When exactInput exists as an slider-wide setting, it isn't possible to selectively override this behavior from the outside. For example, it might be desirable to have the value from a text input be exactly represented on the slider, but to have other API interactions be matched to the slider's steps.

Additionally, for me to a PR, it will need to add tests for the new feature.

Hi @leongersen , thanks for your comment, just made a commit with the changes you suggested:

• change 'exactInput' from slider-wide setting to optional argument in set( ) and setHandle( )
• added tests for this feature.
