md-datepicker - should emit selectedChanged when changed by input

Bug, feature request, or proposal:

Bug

What is the expected behavior?

The name and documentation suggests that selectedChanged should emit even when the date selected is changed by input text

What is the current behavior?

It is emitted only by the calendar

For me, it's the expected behavior. To detect input changes you should use (change) or even (ngModelChange).

I think this is also pretty reasonable.

Although I can also the confusion that people expect the selectedChanged output to fire because when changing the input it would also lead to an "actual" change of the selected date.

If it does remain as-is, the jsdoc comment should probably note that it emits when change comes from datepicker specifically.

Currently:

selectedChanged | Emits new selected date when selected date changes.

@willshowell Yeah that would be for sure. If the behavior stays the same, the docs need to be more explicit about it.

[wilker7ribeiro]

@rafaelss95 (ngModelChange) does trigger even with invalid date, and (change) only triggers on blur or enter key.
Actually, I'm using mdDatepickerInput._valueChange, but I'm having issues with validation time
