Review Comment:
`typed_cast_tz` macro is called by
[`try_from_array`](https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/blob/main/datafusion/common/src/scalar.rs#L2021-L2022).
`try_from_array` is a public function. Depending on what `array` value the
user passes to the function, downcasting the array to a timestamp array can
fail.
This error is reachable and recoverable. It makes sense to return an
internal error here. This aligns with how downcast error is handled in the
[downcast_value](https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/blob/main/datafusion/common/src/lib.rs#L73)
macro.
This does not require any code change in client side. `typed_cast_tz` is
only called in `try_from_array`, which already returns a Result.
