BUG: Cannot convert pd.NA to Timestamp #45481

Pandas version checks

  • I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.

  • I have confirmed this bug exists on the latest version of pandas.

  • I have confirmed this bug exists on the main branch of pandas.

Reproducible Example

import pandas as pd
import numpy as np

print(f"{pd.__version__=}")
for v in [None, np.nan, pd.NA]:
    print(v, pd.Timestamp(v), sep="\t")

Issue Description

pd.Timestamp constructor fails to handle pd.NA properly on the latest version and main branch (1.5.0.dev0+128.g91d3f0b246).

This works fine (on both main branch and 1.3.5) using pd.to_datetime (seems to have been fixed in #32213):

In [5]: pd.to_datetime([np.nan, None, pd.NA])
Out[5]: DatetimeIndex(['NaT', 'NaT', 'NaT'], dtype='datetime64[ns]', freq=None)

Expected Behavior

I expect the Timestamp constructor to handle pd.NA the same way as it handles None and np.nan, i.e. pd.Timestamp(pd.NA) should return NaT.
