[MapServer-WMS]When "wms_timedefault" is not the same format as the actual data format no error is returned

[nsavard@…]

No validation is made when "wms_timedefault" format is not corresponding to the
actual data format when a request is sent with the "time" parameter not set in
the  URL request.  A blank image is displayed and the image properties state
that there is an error.

Request sent:

http://server/cgi-bin/mapserv_43?map=/path/to/wms/time_test/htdocs/
wms_time_pattern_test.map&request=GetMap&Version=1.1.1&LAYERS=pattern11&Time=

The same issue arises with "wms_timeformat" parameter.  I set this parameter to
      "wms_timeformat" "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S".  This format is no longer valid for
the "wms_timeformat" parameter.  MapServer is returning data for the following
requests and should instead return an exception:

http://server/cgi-bin/mapserv_43?map=/path/to/time_test/htdocs/wms_time.map&
request=GetMap&Version=1.1.1&LAYERS=time&Time=2004-01-01%2014:10:00

http://server/cgi-bin/mapserv_43?map=/path/to/time_test/htdocs/wms_time.map&
request=GetMap&Version=1.1.1&LAYERS=time&Time=2004-01-01%2014:10

Not sure if it shoudl return an exception in this case. For sure It won't be an
OGC exception beccause the time passed by the user is valid. 
  I think the one setting the server should make sure that the wms_timeformat is
of the same pattern as the data. There is no way right now to test the default
time does not match the data.   
 When the wms_timeformat parameters are not valid, all the patters defined in
mapserver will be used (which is the default case). I think it is a valid for
now. We could in the future do validations.

I am tagging this as FUTURE.
