Provide a way to get at the underlying Xamarin control

See original GitHub issue

Please. Use case is showing the DatePicker dialog from a different control such as a button or icon. This is done by calling Focus() on the Xamarin DatePicker control. I don’t think a ‘focus’ attribute is applicable here as it would require Fabulous to track the state of the dialog. Access to the Xamarin control may also be useful for animation up the until the proper solution for animation has been implemented.

This is now implemented through either the created callback or by using ViewRef, see the brief docs on ViewRef https://fsprojects.github.io/Fabulous/views-animations.html#viewrefs
