Version 1.34.2 of Backdrop CMS reverts a prior fix for date views grouped filters and relative dates, while retaining support for the deprecated layout_info variable.

Why it matters: Reverting the date‑views fix may restore previous behavior for affected reports; continued layout_info support preserves compatibility for existing themes until they can be updated.
