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.

# Generating dummy probes If Postgres isn't configured with dtrace enabled, we need to generate dummy probes for the entries in probes.d, that do nothing. This is accomplished in Unix via the sed script `Gen_dummy_probes.sed`. We used to use this in MSVC builds using the perl utility `psed`, which mimicked sed. However, that utility disappeared from Windows perl distributions and so we converted the sed script to a perl script to be used in MSVC builds. We still keep the sed script as the authoritative source for generating these dummy probes because except on Windows perl is not a hard requirement when building from a tarball. So, if you need to change the way dummy probes are generated, first change the sed script, and when it's working generate the perl script. This can be accomplished by using the perl utility s2p. s2p is no longer part of the perl core, so it might not be on your system, but it is available on CPAN and also in many package systems. e.g. on Fedora it can be installed using `cpan App::s2p` or `dnf install perl-App-s2p`. The Makefile contains a recipe for regenerating Gen_dummy_probes.pl, so all you need to do is once you have s2p installed is `make Gen_dummy_probes.pl` Note that in a VPATH build this will generate the file in the vpath tree, not the source tree.
