1.parse date-and-time node(lyd_parse_op)(2023-06-02T20:13:25Z);2. print this node(lyd_print_mem), the value change to 2023-06-03T04:13:25+08:00. Is there some method to refuse this change?

1. parse date-and-time node(lyd_parse_op)(2023-06-02T20:13:25Z);
   {"xxx:date-time":"2023-06-02T20:13:25Z"}
   use these interfaces:
   ly_in_new_memory
   lyd_parse_op

2. print this node(lyd_print_mem), the value change to 2023-06-03T04:13:25+08:00
   use these interface:
   lyd_print_mem
   the result is: {"xxx:date-time":"2023-06-03T04:13:25+08:00"}

Why GMT time is automatically changed to local time?
I find that 'lyplg_type_print_date_and_time' will print data-and-time type node value, and it look like do a forced conversion.
I also read this link: #2045
But, I think that:

from rfc3339, data-time's time-offset can be "Z" or time-numoffset, why must print with time-numoffset?

Is there some method to refuse this change or how can I print date-and-time with "Z" time?

YANG date-and-time has its own specification and rules. To avoid using timezone-specific timestamps, you need to use the special timezone -00:00.
