Max Gekk f620996142 [SPARK-36418][SQL] Use CAST in parsing of dates/timestamps with default pattern
### What changes were proposed in this pull request?
In the PR, I propose to use the `CAST` logic when the pattern is not specified in `DateFormatter` or `TimestampFormatter`. In particular, invoke the `DateTimeUtils.stringToTimestampAnsi()` or `stringToDateAnsi()` in the case.

### Why are the changes needed?
1. This can improve user experience with Spark SQL by making the default date/timestamp parsers more flexible and tolerant to their inputs.
2. We make the default case consistent to the behavior of the `CAST` expression which makes implementation more consistent.

### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?
The changes shouldn't introduce behavior change in regular cases but it can influence on corner cases. New implementation is able to parse more dates/timestamps by default. For instance, old (current) date parses can recognize dates only in the format **yyyy-MM-dd** but new one can handle:
   * `[+-]yyyy*`
   * `[+-]yyyy*-[m]m`
   * `[+-]yyyy*-[m]m-[d]d`
   * `[+-]yyyy*-[m]m-[d]d `
   * `[+-]yyyy*-[m]m-[d]d *`
   * `[+-]yyyy*-[m]m-[d]dT*`

Similarly for timestamps. The old (current) timestamp formatter is able to parse timestamps only in the format **yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss** by default, but new implementation can handle:
   * `[+-]yyyy*`
   * `[+-]yyyy*-[m]m`
   * `[+-]yyyy*-[m]m-[d]d`
   * `[+-]yyyy*-[m]m-[d]d `
   * `[+-]yyyy*-[m]m-[d]d [h]h:[m]m:[s]s.[ms][ms][ms][us][us][us][zone_id]`
   * `[+-]yyyy*-[m]m-[d]dT[h]h:[m]m:[s]s.[ms][ms][ms][us][us][us][zone_id]`
   * `[h]h:[m]m:[s]s.[ms][ms][ms][us][us][us][zone_id]`
   * `T[h]h:[m]m:[s]s.[ms][ms][ms][us][us][us][zone_id]`

### How was this patch tested?
By running the affected test suites:
```
$ build/sbt "test:testOnly *ImageFileFormatSuite"
$ build/sbt "test:testOnly *ParquetV2PartitionDiscoverySuite"
```

Closes #33709 from MaxGekk/datetime-cast-default-pattern.
