Staging is unhappy with a recent change landed to fix report data date handling

That failed date is 2001-01-01 which is dubious
It predates Juju, Ensamble, and Bazaar. This date might be a fail over value. The dates come from charm.changes[-1] which is fundamentally flawed because the changes list only contains the last 10 changes. charm.date_created is the most accurate guess of when a charm was created.
