DateTimeBaseInput

This class serves as a base for input widgets that handle date and time values, extending the standard text input functionality. It provides mechanisms for localizing input values based on specific format keys and supports optional microsecond precision. Users can initialize the class with custom attributes and formats to control how date-time data is rendered in forms.

format_key	string = ""	The localization setting key used to retrieve the default date or time formatting string when no specific format is provided.
