updateAirDateInput does not fully overwrite value

[ZIBOWANGKANGYU]

Similar to the issue here, updateAirDateInput does not fully overwrite value in an airDatepickerInput. Instead, if a date has been selected by an old call to updateAirDateInput, it will remain selected even if it is not included in the value in a new call to updateAirDateInput. The problem exists in both versions 0.8.6 and 0.8.6.9100.

library(shiny)
library(shinyWidgets)

ui <- fluidPage(
  airDatepickerInput("date_input", "Pick a date", multiple = TRUE),
    
  actionButton("select_new_date", "Select new date")
)

# Define server logic required to draw a histogram
server <- function(input, output, session) {
  click_count <- reactiveValues(select_new_date = 0)
  observeEvent(input$select_new_date, {
    updateAirDateInput(inputId = "date_input", value = Sys.Date() + click_count$select_new_date) # After each time clicking "select_new_date", only one date should be selected, and the previously selected dates should be de-selected. But this is not the case. Previously selected dates remain selected. 
    click_count$select_new_date <- click_count$select_new_date + 1
  })
}

Good catch, it's fixed if you re-install from GitHub.
