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()` is no longer used in the JSON serializer as of 9b1cb755a28f020e27d4268c214b25315d4de42e, so using `datetime_safe()` is obsolete there.

If we remove `dateteime_safe` usage in migrations (it's need is questionable), that would fix #29595."	Cleanup/optimization	assigned	Core (Other)	dev	Normal				Accepted	0	0	0	0	0	0
