DateMatcher and MultiDateMatcher getAnchorDateMonth returns incorrect value after setting the parameter

[dkincaid]

Description

After creating a DateMatcher or MultiDateMatcher annotator and using setAnchorDateMonth() to set the parameter, a call to getAnchorDateMonth() returns a different value than was set. It appears to return one less than whatever integer was set.

DateMatcher myMatcher = new DateMatcher();
myMatcher.setAnchorDateMonth(5);
int wrongMonth = myMatcher.getAnchorDateMonth();
// wrongMonth will be 4 instead of 5

Context

Adding these parameters to the DateMatcher annotator implementation in the R package sparknlp

Thanks @dkincaid for reporting this. I thought this was fixed in 3.0.3 #2848

@wolliq I know you are very familiar with DateMatcher and MultiDateMatcher. Could you please test this in all 3 languages of Python, Scala, and Java?
