Inconsistent behavior of date range picker

[KJaspers]

We found the following very confusing behavior in the date range picker:
1.) Click the startDate and select a range 1.6. to 3.6.
2.) Calendar closes. Click the startDate again and click 4.6.
Expected: new range 1.6. to 4.6.
Actual: 3.6. to 4.6.
3.) Repeat the test by clicking 5.6. Now the new range is 3.6. to 5.6. (as expected!)
4.) Then open startDate again and select 2.6.
Expected: 2.6. to 5.6.
Actual: 2.6. to 3.6.

This inconsistent behavior is really very confusing for the user!

Can be reproduced with carbon vue story book.

This appears to be an open issue in the Range plugin provided by flatpickr flatpickr/flatpickr#1575

Also raised against carbon-components-react here carbon-design-system/carbon#2981
