Setting the value DbParameter.DbType to DbType.Time property fails after setting the Value property

See original GitHub issue

Describe the bug

Setting the value DbParameter.DbType to DbType.Time property is failing after setting the Value property

No exception and not a breaking issue.

To reproduce

	using Microsoft.Data.SqlClient;
	using System;
	using System.Data;

	namespace DbParameterDbTypeTimeTest
	{
		class Program
		{
			static void Main(string[] args)
			{
				Console.WriteLine("Hello World!");
				TestDbTypeTimeAssignment();
				Console.ReadLine();
			}

			static void TestDbTypeTimeAssignment()
			{
				using (var connection = new SqlConnection(""))
				{
					using (var command = connection.CreateCommand())
					{
						var parameter = command.CreateParameter();
						parameter.ParameterName = "ParameterName";

						// Here I first set the value of the parameter to any TimeStamp
						parameter.Value = DateTime.UtcNow.TimeOfDay;

						// After I assign the value at line 26, the DbType property is "AUTOMATICALLY"
						// set to DbType.Time.
						// The issue is below, I have an explicit call on my ORM to set the DbParameter.DbType
						// value to DbType.Time, and the result afterwards is DbType.DateTime
						parameter.DbType = DbType.Time;

						command.Parameters.Add(parameter);
					}
				}
			}
		}
	}

Expected behavior

I would expect that after setting the DbParameter.DbType property to DbType.Time, the the value of the DbParameter.DbType property should be DbType.Time (not DbType.DateTime).
