Description
### Description
On macOS, the DatePicker control does not respect the Format property. Even when setting a custom format such as Format="dd/MM/yyyy" or Format="MM/dd/yyyy", the control continues to display the date using the system default format.
On other platforms such as Android, iOS, and Windows, the custom format is applied correctly and works as expected.

Research direction
Start by running the attached DatePickerFormatBug.zip sample on macOS 15.1 and compare the DatePicker behavior with Android, iOS, or Windows. Trace the macOS DatePicker implementation and its Format handling. Done means custom formats such as dd/MM/yyyy and MM/dd/yyyy are displayed on macOS as they are on the other platforms.
