backup_ptr.* tests marked experimental.

A hypothesis.

I noticed that e.g., backup_ptr test uses date "2010-01-21" when replaying 
binlog. For example here (line 286 in test script):

--exec $MYSQL_BINLOG --database=ptr --start-datetime="2010-01-21 15:32:22" --stop-datetime="2010-01-21 15:32:24" $MYSQLD_DATADIR/master-bin.000001 |$MYSQL

I don't understand this fully, but I guess that this was supposed to be an 
artificial date chosen "far" in the future and only then test works 
correctly. But now it is 2010-01-22 and here we are - test started to fail 
yesterday. So I guess moving the date further into the future could fix 
this.

I repeat this behavior in backup team trees also. The reason for this test failure is as stated by rafal.

      BUG#50536 (backup_ptr* test fails)
      The test failed because of prefixed date 2010-01-21 which has become past.
      This patch will fix the failing test and replace the datetime to
      future date. The test will use this date to binlog recovery of data 
      before and after backup.
