Current behavior:

When I click the component ion-datetime, it opens the picker with the value set to the first day of the current year if max is not set. or the first day of the year of the value set to max.

Expected behavior:

Please provide a way to set the default value of the picker. In my case, I need to set a max value to ion-datetime and want to give a day as the start point for the user to pick a date. But with the current framework, that's impossible. Actually I have two ion-datetime for start date and end date. So when the user picks a start time, I want the default value for the picker for the end date to be the start date.
