HTML text inputs don't include date from HTML value attribute or JavaScript date option

[FlipperPA]

In the following repro, only the JavaScript date option is provided for start_date, and both the value HTML attribute and date JavaScript option are provided for end_date.

• Under alpha 14, a date value is populated for both text inputs.
• Under alpha 15, 16, and 17, a date value is only only populated for the end_date text input, and the start_date is empty.
• Under alpha 18, a date value is not populated for either text input; both are empty.

<input type="text" name="start_date" class="form-control datetimepicker-input" placeholder="Start Date" title="" data-toggle="datetimepicker" data-target="#id_start_date" id="id_start_date">
<script type="text/javascript">
    $(function () {
        $('#id_start_date').datetimepicker({"format": "YYYY-MM-DD", "date": "2018-05-29"});
    });
</script>

<input type="text" name="end_date" value="2018-05-29" class="form-control datetimepicker-input" placeholder="End Date" title="" data-toggle="datetimepicker" data-target="#id_end_date" id="id_end_date">
<script type="text/javascript">
    $(function () {
        $('#id_end_date').datetimepicker({"format": "YYYY-MM-DD", "date": "2018-05-29"});
    });
</script>

Thanks for the amazing work, I hope this is detailed enough.

I solved this issue by just setting the value after it is initiated.

        $('.datetimepicker-input').each(function() {
            var value = $(this).val();
            $(this).datetimepicker({
                format: 'YYYY-MM-DD',
                date: value
            });
            $(this).val(value);
        });
