[SPARK-24682] [SQL] from_json / to_json now handle java.sql.Date/Timestamp as Map key ## What changes were proposed in this pull request? When generating JSON the key is not just converted to a String now, instead the type is checked and for Dates and Timestamps the formatting happens first (if provided). When reading JSON, if the Schema says that a Map has a Date or Timestamp as the key then once again the formatting is done before the String is converted to the correct value for a Date or Timestamp. ## How was this patch tested? I have added Unit Tests. Please review http://spark.apache.org/contributing.html before opening a pull request.
