[SPARK-22829] Add new built-in function date_trunc()

## What changes were proposed in this pull request?

Adding date_trunc() as a built-in function.
`date_trunc` is common in other databases, but Spark or Hive does not have support for this. `date_trunc` is commonly used by data scientists and business intelligence application such as Superset (https://github.com/apache/incubator-superset).
We do have `trunc` but this only works with 'MONTH' and 'YEAR' level on the DateType input.

date_trunc() in other databases:
AWS Redshift: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/redshift/latest/dg/r_DATE_TRUNC.html
PostgreSQL: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/functions-datetime.html
Presto: https://prestodb.io/docs/current/functions/datetime.html

## How was this patch tested?
