Comment (by flixos90):

 [attachment:"40364.14.diff"] implements the final change that was agreed
 on in yesterday's office hours meeting: When `0000-00-00 00:00:00` is
 stored as one of the site date values for whatever reason (the new
 functions catch that, but for whatever reason old code might not have), we
 wanna ensure this validation doesn't fail. Therefore
 `wp_validate_site_data()` now allows that "empty" date to be passed. Note
 that it is stripped out before though, if it is actually passed to
 `wp_insert_site()` or `wp_update_site()`, so this is only an extra BC
 measure to account for old data, as throwing an error then would be
 unexpected. Two test datasets to verify this behavior have been added.

 In yesterday's discussion we determined this is ready. I'll commit
 shortly.
