What's in this Pull Request?

Exposed the allowTextInput property. Developer can now choose whether the user can add dates as text value rather than picking one from the date picker.

@milanholemans many thanks for the PR. I just noticed that the previous default value was true and now is false so wondering if this could cause issues to people who upgrade and don't notice the change. Could this be set to true by default, or did you experience any issues?

The thing is, I noticed that the DatePicker component of office-fabric-ui uses false as default value. That's why I made it false here by default as well. I can change it to true if needed.

@AJIXuMuK what are your thoughts regarding changing this default value? Should we avoid it or go ahead and ensure that it's documented/announced?

[milanholemans]

It has been changed from false to true last year, check this PR #971.

@joelfmrodrigues I would not change the defaults without a necessity.
@milanholemans - thank you for providing this info.
This is our mistake. We should have implemented this as property right away.
But for now - let's leave the default as is.

@AJIXuMuK @joelfmrodrigues I changed the default value back to true.

@milanholemans many thanks, it has now been merged
