If `null` is provided, no section will be selected. If not provided, the selected sections will be handled internally.
shouldDisableTime	func	-	Disable specific time. Signature:`function(value: TDate, view: TimeView) => boolean` `value` The value to check. `view` The clock type of the timeValue. Returns: If `true` the time will be disabled.

timezone	string	The timezone of the `value` or `defaultValue` prop is defined, 'default' otherwise.	Choose which timezone to use for the value. Example: "default", "system", "UTC", "America/New_York". If you pass values from other timezones to some props, they will be converted to this timezone before being used. See the timezones documentation for more details.

view	'hours' \| 'meridiem' \| 'minutes' \| 'seconds'	-	The visible view. Used when the component view is controlled. Must be a valid option from `views` list.
