Improve parsing of ISO 8601 dateTime

[GoogleCodeExporter]

DateParser doesn't handle all allowable ISO 8601 dateTime formats.

E.g. a parse exception is thrown when attempting to parse a valid ISO8601
dateTime such as '2009-11-23T13:29:24.604-05:00'.

See attached patch (against trunk).  It preserves the behavior of
DateParser (attempting to use the existing SimpleDateFormats), but then
goes on to use the ISODateTimeFormat from Joda Time.  (Patch adds a Joda
Time dependency and includes test).

Oh, this patch also adds source jar and javadoc jar generation in the pom... 
sorry
about polluting the patch.  But maybe you could keep that as it's helpful.
