Off-by-one error max_date_allowed in dcc.DatePickerRange #1406

In recent versions (can't say from exactly when), there seems to be an off-by-one error in dcc.DatePickerRange. I set max_date_allowed = datetime.today().date(), but in the calendar, yesterday is the maximum date allowed. I see it in my apps, and it is also present in the first example on the DatePickerRange documentation page.

Example:

html.Div(
        dcc.DatePickerRange(
            id="date_range",
            start_date_placeholder_text="Start Period",
            end_date_placeholder_text="End Period",
            max_date_allowed=datetime.today().date(),
            display_format="YYYY-MM-DD",
            first_day_of_week=1,
            clearable=True,
            minimum_nights=0,
            persistence=True,
        ),
    )

I've also tried connecting callbacks to State("date_range", "max_date_allowed"), and there the received max date is today's date, so it only appears in the frontend.

Tested with server under both Windows 10 1909 and Linux Mint 19.1, and in both Google Chrome 85.0 and Firefox 80.0. Versions:

dash==1.16.0
dash-core-components==1.12.0
dash-html-components==1.1.1
dash-renderer==1.8.0
dash-table==4.10.1
