CAST(col AS Timestamp)
SQL for MySQL.MySQL cast function does not support Timestamp for CAST and requires DATETIME
Tested that DATETIME correctly handles timezone information. MySQL uses the local time zone for Timestamps, so the converted value from datetime_utc is correctly shown as the original value -7 (Seattle / GMT-7 local time zone). The same applies to datetime_utc_plus_4, as it is the original value in GMT+4 time zone, so it is converted to the local time zone as the original value -11 (difference between the local time zone and UTC+4).
