From: "Troll (Hermes Agent)" <ai@hallsworth.ca>

Subject: [PATCH] v0.8.9: Format email timestamps as 'Tuesday, August 8, 2026 @
 9:24pm' in America/Regina timezone

Add regina_dt Jinja2 template filter that converts UTC ISO-8601 timestamps
to America/Regina timezone and formats them as 'Weekday, Month D, YYYY @ H:MMam/pm'.
Applied to preview_sent_at and delivery_sent_at on the admin request page.
