Comment (by Rarst):

 Added patch to adjust column date implementation. Went with
 `get_post_timestamp()` since it's most semantically fitting for the task,
 though it will still suffer from time zone slipping on change, which is
 waaay to large of a problem to address here).

 Effectively there are two standing patches for two issues:
 1. Enabling `get_post_datetime()` to replicate legacy behavior of
 instancing from local or UTC time in database
 2. Fixing handling `column_date()` logic

 Local time changing with time zone change is a larger major issue in core
 and there is the #38774 ticket for it.
