Screenshot showing mangled ISO 8601 DocReleasedDate field

It is fairly common in environments where document version control is in place
to want to set Custom document properties such as DocVersion or DocReleasedDate
and use those fields in the document. Unfortunately the current version of
LibreOffice Writer on Ubuntu 20.04 is mangling those to the point of not being
able to use them. Please fix to Date field isn't changed to DateTime field with
invalid data.

To reproduce this bug:
1. Start from a blank document in Writer. Edit Document Properties and add a
Custom property of DocReleasedDate and pick type Date (not DateTime) and select
2020-05-25 i.e. use an ISO 8601 standard date format.
2. Type This is a test. and add the field DocReleasedDate
3. Add a Header and type This is a header test. and add the field
DocReleasedDate
4. SaveAs the file as DateTest.docx using Word 2007-365 .docx filter.
5. Re open the file and find the date format with garbage 0025-01-02 and custom
property changed from Date to DateTime with invalid data.
