> Resolve dtypes inconsistencies of date/timestamp functions
> ----------------------------------------------------------
>
>                 Key: SPARK-41455
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-41455
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Sub-task
>          Components: PySpark
>    Affects Versions: 3.4.0
>            Reporter: Xinrong Meng
>            Priority: Major
>
> When implementing date/timestamp functions, we notice inconsistent dtypes 
> with PySpark, as shown below.
> {code:python}
> >> sdf.select(SF.current_timestamp()).toPandas().dtypes
> current_timestamp()    datetime64[ns]
> dtype: object
> >>> cdf.select(CF.current_timestamp()).toPandas().dtypes
> current_timestamp()    datetime64[ns, America/Los_Angeles]
> {code}
> Affected functions include:
> {code:python}
> to_timestamp, from_utc_timestamp, to_utc_timestamp, timestamp_seconds, 
> current_timestamp, date_trunc
> {code}
> We may have to implement `is_timestamp_ntz_preferred` for Connect.
> After the fix, tests of those date/timestamp functions which use 
> `compare_by_show` should be switched to `toPandas` comparison.
