Use freezegun as it is more easy to use and allow to remove a lot of extra
boilerplate. Indeed manually patching datetime is a PITA as a lot of imports
have to be patched.
A custom patching has to be done for create_date, as it is done using a value
stored on the cursor (cr._now), based on SQL now. As it has nothing to do
with standard python library it cannot be patched using freezegun.
