correct filter events on the migration event horizon

events that existed *prior* to the partition migration will have
`job_created=1970-01-01` auto-applied at migration time; as such,
queries for these events e.g., /api/v2/job/N/job_events/
use 1970-01-01 in related event searche

events created *after* the partition migration (net-new playbook runs
will have `job_created` values that *exactly match* the related
`UnifiedJob.created` field.
