[JENA-838] xsd:dateTimes and xsd:times are not canonical.

• Type: Bug

Description

The time part always includes milliseconds even when zero.

XSD defines the fractional part to be the minimum length (i.e. not ending in zero). Jena has traditionally used milliseconds (3 places). Fixed format is easier for the date formatters.

A compromise is no fractional part when milliseconds is zero and 3 decimal places when milliseconds is non-zero.
