RFC 3339 is the most common time representation,
being used in an overwhelming 57.3% of all specified formats,
while the next competitor only holds 7.5% usage.
Specially optimize parsing to handle the RFC 3339 format.
To reduce the complexity of error checking,
parseRFC3339 simply returns a bool indicating parsing success.
It leaves error handling to the general parse path.
To assist in fuzzing, the internal parse function was left unmodified
so that we could test that parseRFC3339 and parse agree with each other.
Performance:
name old time/op new time/op delta
ParseRFC3339UTC 112ns ± 1% 37ns ± 1% -67.37% (p=0.000 n=9+9)
ParseRFC3339TZ 259ns ± 2% 67ns ± 1% -73.92% (p=0.000 n=10+9)
