Is your feature request related to a problem?

Parquet files have metadata which includes the list of ordered columns. We could check that list and in case if the first sorted column is a timestamp, treat it as the designated timestamp. If we integrate this into the parallel read_parquet factory (#5256), queries on external parquet files will automatically gain all of our TS-specific optimizations.
