Support passing in a date string
See original GitHub issueCorrect me if I am wrong, but it seems like right now it is not possible to pass something like "2016-12-27T16:16:22.585Z" to set the initial value, but passing a Date object works, so if I do Date("2016-12-27T16:16:22.585Z") and then pass that in, it works.
Do you think flatpickr could have an if to check if the passed value is a string, and convert it to a Date object behind the scenes?

I just think it would be much easier to follow the code if it were a class with methods, but it’s really no benefit, just syntactic sugar.
I think tests first would be a good idea, then we can revisit possible refactors after we have tests to make sure nothing breaks 😄 .
Let me know where I can help out!
Ah nice, thanks! Would you be interested in some help converting this into an ES2015 class? I’d be glad to help out with that effort, and I think we should write some tests as well.
