TimestampParser (Hive 1.2.2 API)

```
public class TimestampParser
extends Object
```
Timestamp parser using Joda DateTimeFormatter. Parser accepts 0 or more date time format patterns. If no format patterns are provided it will default to the normal Timestamp parsing. Datetime formats are compatible with Java SimpleDateFormat. Also added special case pattern "millis" to parse the string as milliseconds since Unix epoch. Since this uses Joda DateTimeFormatter, this parser should be thread safe.
