[hotfix] backward compatibility on date expressions (#3396)

Previously all 'since' date expression evaluated in the future like
`30 days` would be reassigned to the past (now - `30 days`). It would
extend to fixed dates which is a bad thing and was removed.

Now we have reports and dashboards in the wild that use things like `30
days` and we'd like to not break those as we roll out the next version.

This fix should allow for that.
