feat: ion-item-sliding open start and end options at the same time

Feature Request

Ionic version:

[x] 4.x

Describe the Feature Request Open ion-item-sliding on start and end using open("both").

Use case I would like to use this to implement a counter which can be changed by either clicking on the corresponding “+” / “-” option on either end or by swiping over the counter in the corresponding direction. Please see image below.

Describe Preferred Solution I would like to open a ion-item-sliding on both sides using some programmatic API. This would help me implement a button which can either be clicked or using a slide motion to activate.

Describe Alternatives Currently I am using a button on both sides of the slider to mimic the same behavior (see screenshot). This comes with the following downsides which I have to fix with custom JavaScript:

• when sliding to one side the other side’s button is not hidden
• the slider can still stay open which results in a button a bit wider on one side (ugly)

-> Maybe some very dark CSS wizardry or using internal functions could be used to achieve the same.
