parseInstantQuiet
parseInstantQuiet parses a string argument as an Instant, which represents a specific point in time. Resolution can be as precise as a millisecond.
Instant strings are formatted according to the ISO-8601 date-time format as yyyy-MM-ddThh:mm:ss[.SSSSSSSSS] TZ.
"Quiet" methods return null instead of throwing an exception when encountering a string that cannot be parsed.
