Maintenance updates

Shortly after WordPress 5.3.1 was released, a couple of high severity Trac tickets were opened. The Core team scheduled this quick maintenance release to resolve these issues.

Main issues addressed in 5.3.2:

• Date/Time: Ensure that get_feed_build_date() correctly handles a modified post object with invalid date.
• Uploads: Fix file name collision in wp_unique_filename() when uploading a file with upper case extension on non case-sensitive file systems.
• Media: Fix PHP warnings in wp_unique_filename() when the destination directory is unreadable.
• Administration: Fix the colors in all color schemes for buttons with the .active class.
• Posts, Post Types: In wp_insert_post(), when checking the post date to set future or publish status, use a proper delta comparison.
