Datepicker no longer confined to element

[eladavron]

Expected behaviour

In previous versions (verified working 1.9.0) this code:

<div>Nov. 2020 <button class="btn btn-sm btn-link btn-extend date"><i class="fas fa-history"></i></button></div>

$(".btn-extend")}.datepicker({
    viewMode: "months",
    minViewMode: "months",
    format: "yyyy-mm"
});

would produce this clickable button:

That when clicked, would pop up the datepicker:

I have the same issue after upgrading to 1.10 as well. Any workaround or fix available? I'm not a fan of replacing this library with another one just because of this issue, would like to continue using bootstrap-datepicker

The fact, that there is not a single answer on this massive BC break shows that it's maybe time to find another lib for the job...
