Description of the bug

I had previously experienced with release dates and airdates, it's related to how UTC timezone is translated into local timezones, however I had not noticed before that it also effects the birthdates of people/actors.

Reproduction steps

Scrape an actor's metadata and compare the metadata field with the what's being displayed on the page.

What is the current bug behavior?

Check the metadata of a scraped person/actor. Observe the birthdate in the metadata field.
Now check the page in web client, jellyfin media player client, or androidTV client,
The birthdate will display as one day earlier than it how it's recorded in the metadata field.
Perhaps this only effects users who are in earlier timezones like mine (PST)

What is the expected correct behavior?

Display the birthdate exactly as it's recorded in the metadata/scraped from the metadata provider.

I live in PST and I was unable to replicate the bug you were seeing on the jellyfin web UI. Was there a particular actor that you noticed that had this issue?

Lots. Christopher McDonald for example displays as 2/14/1955 instead of 2/15/1955
