Patch Changes
Thanks @segunadebayo! - Fix issue where the
checked ring of RadioCard and CheckboxCard (outline variant) gets clipped
when a parent has overflow: hidden|auto|scroll. The ring is now drawn with
an inset shadow instead of an outer shadow.
Thanks @segunadebayo! - Sync theme from
@chakra-ui/react: register the missing floatingPanel slot recipe and
update the date picker range-selection styles
