[TIME-313] RESTful API should not use the date picker format for its request parameters

[Andriy Zhdanov]

As indicated in issue #269 "[TIME-269] RESTful timesheet endpoint", the input values for startDate and endDate are in Jira Date Picker format, meaning that they are subject to Administrator changes. Applications willing to access this REST service must thus know the configuration format which is not convenient since it must thus be maintained in several places.

It would be more convenient to have it in a configuration-independent format like the default one or in UNIX time (although this could maybe cause timezone issues...). Maybe those should be added as new parameters to keep backwards compatibility.

Fixed in upcoming 2.3.10, it's now possible to use ISO date for both startDate and endDate parameters. Backward compatible, and date picker format is parsed first.
Committed revision 170275.
