29600	Remove usage of django.utils.datetime_safe where possible	Tim Graham	Tim Graham	"`django.utils.datetime_safe` was added in #1443 to overcome limitations in Python 2.7 where `strftime()` doesn't support dates with year < 1900. That issue is fixed in Python 3, but an issue remains where the result of `strftime('%Y')` [https://bugs.python.org/issue13305 isn't consistent] across all platforms. That issue was worked around in #12524.

`strftime()` and `datetime_safe` are no longer used in the JSON serializer as of 9b1cb755a28f020e27d4268c214b25315d4de42e but the fix from 03924929ba212368240bd7a26b14208fba965cb9 may still be useful in the other places that `datetime_safe` is used.

If we remove `dateteime_safe` usage in migrations (its need there is questionable, I think), that would fix #29595."	Cleanup/optimization	closed	Core (Other)	dev	Normal	fixed			Accepted	0	0	0	0	0	0
