User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.15; rv:76.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/76.0

Steps to reproduce:

Click on <input type="date" min="2030-05-01">.

Actual results:

The date picker popup opens, showing me the month of today.

Expected results:

The date picker popup opens, showing me the month of min (2030-05).

Variation: <input type="date" max="2019-05-01"> should show the month of max (2019-05).

In other words: If the month of today is not within the valid range, use the closest month that is valid. This makes it easier for the user to pick a valid date.

Chrome already works this way.

Bugbug thinks this bug should belong to this component, but please revert this change in case of error.
