DecodeDateTime and DecodeTimeOnly had support for date input in the style "Y2023M03D16", which the comments claimed to be an "ISO" format. However, so far as I can find there is no such format in ISO 8601; they write units before numbers in intervals, but not in datetimes. Furthermore, the lesser-known ISO 8601-2 spec actually defines an incompatible format "2023Y03M16D". None of our documentation mentions such a format either. So let's just drop it. That leaves us with only two cases for a prefix unit specifier in datetimes: Julian dates written as Jnnnn, and the "T" separator defined by ISO 8601. Add checks to catch misuse of these specifiers, that is consecutive specifiers or a dangling specifier at the end of the string. We do not however disallow a specifier that is separated from the field that it disambiguates (by noise words or unrelated fields). That being the case, remove some overly-aggressive error checks from the ISOTIME cases. Joseph Koshakow, editorialized a bit by me; thanks also to Peter Eisentraut for some standards-reading.
