When the date format is defined in mapping, you can not use another format when querying using range date query or filter.
For example, this won't work:
```
DELETE /test
PUT /test/t/1
{
"date": "2014-01-01"
}
GET /test/_search
{
"query": {
"filtered": {
"filter": {
"range": {
"date": {
"from": "01/01/2014"
}
}
}
}
}
}
```
It causes:
```
Caused by: org.elasticsearch.ElasticsearchParseException: failed to parse date field [01/01/2014], tried both date format [dateOptionalTime], and timestamp number
```
It could be nice if we can support at query time another date format just like we support `analyzer` at search time on String fields.
Something like:
```
GET /test/_search
{
"query": {
"filtered": {
"filter": {
"range": {
"date": {
"from": "01/01/2014",
"format": "dd/MM/yyyy"
}
}
}
}
}
}
```
Same for queries:
```
GET /test/_search
{
"query": {
"range": {
"date": {
"from": "01/01/2014",
"format": "dd/MM/yyyy"
}
}
}
}
```
Closes#7189.
