Feature request

The DateInput component has the missing ability to select all text inside text input. I found this behavior very usable. As i can see DateRangeInput has selectAllOnFocus prop, which i think must be presented and in DateInput too.

BTW. I don’t know but maybe it would be better to add prop which controls this behavior directly to InputGroup component

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine how `DateRangeInput` implements `selectAllOnFocus` and replicate the pattern in `DateInput`. Consider whether the prop should be added to `InputGroup` for reusability.
