DateInputField doesn't support dates with no leading zero

@skarjalainen Is it a strict requirement?
I tried to implement it today but the mask ugly jumps.
And it not comfortable for user when he input date with keyboard.

Here is how on Mac date input looks like:

As you can see there is an empty "cell"/character is shown. I propose to follow this path in case when date patterns looks like 'D.M.YYYY', e.g. for day and month 2 positions/characters are still used, but after user input one position could still stay empty/unfilled.

@kvolkovich-sc Users are used to look at dates without zeroes all around the app and it could be confusing if the zeroes are required when editing the value.

@asergeev-sc This suggestion looks good.

Placeholder: 'D.M.YYYY'
Typing '31.3.2017':

' 3. -.----'
'31. -.----'
'31. 3.----'

Displaying white space before day/month if the value is below 10.

One problem that comes in mind is how user moves from single character value to next value, maybe right arrow.

Done.
