Date and time functions support

The current v3 SDK does not support all date and time functions. The following functions are not supported:

• GetCurrentTicks
• DateTimePart
• DateTimeToTicks
• TicksToDateTime

I receive the following error(s) when running the sample queries provided in the links above:

Exception thrown: 'Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.CosmosException' in System.Private.CoreLib.dll: 'Response status code does not indicate success: BadRequest (400); Substatus: 0; ActivityId: ; Reason: (Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.Query.Core.Monads.ExceptionWithStackTraceException: TryCatch resulted in an exception. ---> Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.Query.Core.Monads.ExceptionWithStackTraceException: TryCatch resulted in an exception. ---> Microsoft.Azure.Cosmos.Query.Core.Exceptions.ExpectedQueryPartitionProviderException: {"errors":[{"severity":"Error","location":{"start":7,"end":22},"code":"SC2005","message":"'GetCurrentTicks' is not a recognized built-in function name."}]}

I would like the SDK to be updated to support these methods.

Currently, I am using string functions to manipulate dates. This is less than ideal, and would prefer to use the date and time functions. I am able to run the queries with these methods through Data Explorer. I have tested on versions 3.12.0 and 3.13.0-preview.
