Review comment:
       You've right and I've checked that jmh is on GPL licence so I've removed this benchmark code at all from this PR.

Review comment:
       In fact it was implicitly done before my change because `SimpleDateFormat.format` uses system timezone in this case but I agree with you that using system time zone in tests should be avoided and in production code should be well documented and test - fixed.

       It is tested in `TestFormatUtils.testParseInstant`.

Review comment:
       In general it make sense but for some reasons someone hardcoded US locales in all places in nifi expression language. Take a look at `DateCastEvaluator`, `FormatEvaluator`, `StringToDateEvaluator` before my change. Everywhere was used `new SimpleDateFormat(formatValue, Locale.US)`. And it is quite good for most cases because quite often names of months, day of weeks and so on used in data are in English even if locales are different.

Review comment:
       I'm testing here different time zone combination, there are explicitly passed Europe/Warsaw and system default (set to Europe/Kiev), what will give us testing with more combinations? Java time API handles in the same way time zones greater and less than GMT.

Review comment:
       It is one approach that will give reasonable result when user wont provide time zone as an argument of `format` function and it worked this way before the change. Actually it is documented here: https://nifi.apache.org/docs/nifi-docs/html/expression-language-guide.html#format in "The number will be evaluated using the local time zone unless specified in the second optional argument". But you've right that it is not visible in tests. I've added `TestQuer.testFormatUsesLocalTimeZoneUnlessIsSpecified` test case.

Review comment:
       You've right but I don't want to hardcode instant as a millis from 1970 - it would obfuscate test cases. I've changed the logic that now result isn't in UTC but expected value is converted to instant using UTC. It will be more readable?
