 - The `legacy` property and support for the legacy syntax, which involved placing an `ion-range` inside of an `ion-item` with an `ion-label`, have been removed. Ionic will also no longer attempt to automatically associate form controls with sibling `<label>` elements as these label elements are now used inside the form control. Developers should provide a label (either visible text or `aria-label`) directly to the form control.
