Hi Pallavi,

Thank you for working on this. I think the javadoc should also be 
updated, mentioning offset parsing.

With this fix, Instant.parse() can parse a String containing the zero offsets in any of these three forms. Any other offset apart from "Z", "+00:00", "+0000", or "+00" will not be accepted in the input string to be parsed.
