 Review comment:
   Right, it works due to your changes 
https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/17901 . When the `format` parameter is 
omitted, `to_timestamp` uses another parsing mechanism via 
`DateTimeUtils.stringToTimestamp` and the result is not truncated to seconds as 
we do when the `format` is provided. Weird behavior. :-(
