Comment:

 Ok, `mysql2date()` is getting fixed up some in #28992, but
 `get_post_time()` (surprise! surprise!) is broken anyway.

 Really not keen on keeping using `mysql2date()` for GMT times, doesn't
 really make sense.

 As planned added patch introducing `get_post_datetime()`, changing older
 functions to use it, with unit tests for old quirky logic.
