Reverts PR #2210 (commits 6936f84, 78f8131) and PR #2573 (commit 172a97b).

The change in #2210 was intended to fix UTC display of meta fields (createdAt/lastEditAt), but accidentally applied UTC conversion to all user-facing datetime columns. This causes time values to shift on every save and misinterprets all existing data for users outside UTC.

PR #2573 patches one symptom of the same root cause and is therefore included in this revert.

For the full analysis, see: #2479 (comment)

The original meta field display issue that #2210 was trying to fix still exists and should be addressed separately.

Fixes #2479
