Allow two digit year formatting

[brendonshih]

Currently the date picker only displays full four digit years (2021). I thought it might be a documentation oversight so I used the Unicode standard format year (yy) by trying M/d/yy and the date still comes out like 5/11/2021. It's pretty common for people to only want to display 2 digits due to space constraints so it would be nice if the formatter supported date formats like 5/11/21.

Unlikely to happen, because we have no way of knowing which century we should assume.

new Date().getYear() returns 122 at the moment of writing. So we wouldn't be able to use even that!

Two digit year display is a standard in many forms. It’s weird how you’re acting like it’s not possible to allow people to show 2022 as 22 simply because converting 22 to 2022 is slightly more difficult. This is about displaying 2022 as 22 not about converting a 2 digit year like 22 to 2022 in code. You don’t need to assume a year. This is about taking a known year and letting the user display less information (the last two digits). You already allow users to show less information by omitting the time from the date object.
