Time.parse("2018-11-20 17:11:22.123", "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S.%3N")
# => raise ArgumentError: invalid strptime format - `%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S.%3N'
Time.parse("2018-11-20 17:11:22.123456", "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S.%6N")
# => raise ArgumentError: invalid strptime format - `%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S.%6N'
Time.parse("2018-11-20 17:11:22.123456789", "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S.%9N")
# => raise ArgumentError: invalid strptime format - `%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S.%9N'

But RDoc says that (https://docs.ruby-lang.org/en/2.5.0/Time.html#method-c-strptime):

~~~
%N
Fractional seconds digits, default is 9 digits (nanosecond)

  %3N
  millisecond (3 digits)

  %6N
  microsecond (6 digits)

  %9N
  nanosecond (9 digits)
~~~

`%N` works fine for this purpose.
I think we can remove %3N, %6N, and %9N from the document.

In fact, Fluentd users confuse when they read [the document](https://docs.ruby-lang.org/en/2.5.0/Time.html#method-c-strptime) to configure Fluentd's parameter.
