Let pygmt.info load datetime columns into a str dtype array

Fixes problem with pygmt.info not being able to handle datetime64 inputs.
I.e. `ValueError: could not convert string to float: '2021-01-01T12:34:56'`
However, users will still need to use`pygmt.info(..., f="0T")` until
upstream issue at GenericMappingTools/gmt#4241
is resolved. Also added two extra unit tests using numpy datetime64 types.
