Description
Hello.
I have a function to get the period, but the problem is only days in a month.
[**Example**](https://codesandbox.io/s/unruffled-elion-dx82k?fontsize=14&hidenavigation=1&theme=dark)
The documentation briefly describes diff, and as I understand it, you can't return the duration, only in a specific unit format
https://day.js.org/docs/en/display/difference
I want to get duration in the context of dates in which this period is specified.
Duration plugin, works without context, it doesn't fit
[**See issue**](https://github.com/iamkun/dayjs/issues/1063#issuecomment-696467960)
Who can help with this issue? Thx

Research direction
Start by reading the difference documentation and reproducing the behavior in the linked CodeSandbox. Review the referenced issue 1063 discussion for existing context; no repository file or test is identified, so the expected API and completion criteria need clarification before implementation.
