Taiwanese locale (zh-Hant-TW) does not parse datetime correctly as expected on Android 13+

[yma44]

Description

We have issue which string with "PM" does not parsed correctly when a device locale is set to Taiwanese (zh-Hant-TW) on Android 13+.
DateTime.TryPase returns true, but output value is not correct. Even though 1PM is passed to the TryParse method, the output is 1am.

This is the code:

DateTime dateTime;
DateTime.TryParse("1:00:00 PM", CultureInfo.CurrentCulture, DateTimeStyles.AssumeLocal, out dateTime);

dateTime variable before calling this method : 0001/1/1 12:00:00 dateTime variable after calling this method : 2024/11/18 1:00:00

If we use Android 12, the output is correct. dateTime variable before calling this method : 0001/1/1 上午12:00:00 dateTime variable after calling this method : 2024/11/18 下午1:00:00

If we use other Chinese locales (e.g. Hong Kong Chinese) there is no issues.
