Range Limits for a Datetime Axis don't work with Datetime

[mgorfer]

When setting the x-limits of my datetime axis with
xlim = (datetime.datetime(2002, 1, 1), datetime.datetime(2004, 1, 1)),
I get the error message
ValueError: xlim: tuple element is not numeric: 2002-01-01 00:00:00.
The x-axis data comes from xarray and has dtype='datetime64[ns]

My workaround for entering the x-limits is
xlim = (datetime.datetime(2002, 1, 1).timestamp() * 1000, datetime.datetime(2004, 1, 1).timestamp() * 1000)

Should implement this in #3441 and also allow date strings at the same time.

I believe this was fixed in #3491
