 When a nav menu item is imported, it is given the post_date "now" rather
 than the value in the export file. There is currently no simple mechanism
 for setting the post_date for a nav menu item in wp_update_nav_menu_item,
 even though this value is useful for post_exists checks.

 This change will allow the WordPress importer to pass the export file
 post_date value through wp_update_nav_menu_item, improving performance of
 post_exists for nav menu items.

 This requires the new function resolve_post_date proposed in #52187.
