[pkg/ottl] Support for locale

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

When timestamp is in non-english language normal golang parsing will fail.

example: when the tool i'm observing is producing Italian logs in a form of mercoledì set 4 2024 parsing with a layout Monday Jan 2 2006 should yield 4th September 2024 correctly

Describe the solution you'd like

Depending on https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector-contrib/issues/32977

DoD:

• Add an ottl.Optional[string] argument to Time converter named locale.
• Check locale is valid and we have a mapping for it at startup not in expression function
• Date in non-english locales are parsed correctly
• Support for different formats e.g stdLongWeekDay, stdWeekDay
• Unit tests verifying known locales
