Describe the bug Dynamic mapping interprets a string with this format 1406-21 as a date field, but then it fails to index due to 21 not being a valid month.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. PUT /bug_report

2. POST /bugreport/_doc
   {
   "not_a_date": "1406-21"
   }

3. {
   "error": {
   "root_cause": [
     {
       "type": "date_time_exception",
       "reason": "date_time_exception: Invalid value for MonthOfYear (valid values 1 - 12): 21"
     }
   ],
   "type": "mapper_parsing_exception",
   "reason": "failed to parse field [not_a_date] of type [date] in document with id 'ikxsRYoBwHActdbCw803'. Preview of field's value: '1406-21'",
   "caused_by": {
     "type": "date_time_exception",
     "reason": "date_time_exception: Invalid value for MonthOfYear (valid values 1 - 12): 21"
   }
   },

   }

@ungeordnet I don't think anyone is working on this. Want to try to help? Start by writing a YAML REST test and then a lower level unit test that reproduces the issue?
