In Mu::parse_date_time, when provided with an empty string, return time_t_max instead of G_MAXINT64. For systems with a 64-bit time_t, there is no difference. With a 32-bit time_t it caused a test to fail:
This edge case probably only affected the test, as when other parts of the application call parse_date_time (e.g. mu-server.cc and mu-query-processor.cc), they check if the input string is empty first.
