How to select dates before 1900? #87

If the demo apps cannot help and there is no issue for your problem, tell us about it

The date picker only allows me to select dates back to 1900. Is there a way to get it to go earlier?

Which platform(s) does your issue occur on?

I have only tested it on Android emulator and device.

Please, provide the following version numbers that your issue occurs with:

CLI: 7.2.1
Cross-platform modules: 7.3.0
Runtime(s): android: 7.0.1

Please, tell us how to recreate the issue in as much detail as possible.

Open the date picker as described in the documentation, then try to scroll to a year before 1900.

The [default minimum date](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/DatePicker#getMinDate()) is 1900-01-01. This can be overridden by passing in an earlier date to the minDate property, e.g. new Date(1500, 1, 1)
