Title: Support DateTimeFormat annotation without Joda

Dependency on Joda Time when using the @DateTimeFormat annotation is
now optional. If Joda Time is not present the JDK SimpleDateFormat
will be used to parse and print date patterns. If Joda time is
present it will always be used in preference to SimpleDateFormat.

Issue: SPR-6508
