BUG: DatetimeIndex.slice_locs() doesn't hande date objects not in index

[seth-p]

I would expect [7] below to return the same result as [5] (just as [6] returns the same result as [4]).

In [1]: import pandas as pd, datetime as dt                                                                                                                                                                                    

In [2]: pd.__version__                                                                                                                                                                                                         
Out[2]: '1.0.3'

In [3]: a = pd.DatetimeIndex(['2010-01-01', '2010-01-03'])                                                                                                                                                                     

In [4]: a.slice_locs(dt.datetime(2010, 1, 1), dt.datetime(2010, 1, 3))                                                                                                                                                         
Out[4]: (0, 2)

In [5]: a.slice_locs(dt.datetime(2010, 1, 1), dt.datetime(2010, 1, 2))                                                                                                                                                         
Out[5]: (0, 1)

In [6]: a.slice_locs(dt.date(2010, 1, 1), dt.date(2010, 1, 3))
