The function `util_parse_time` is now first used to parse the date/time, allowing to auto-detect the format (not based on the option logger.file.time_format). If the parsing fails, then we fallback on the call to `strptime`, using the format in option logger.file.time_format (legacy behavior). This allows to change the option logger.file.time_format without impact on the display of the backlog.
