[Rd] R 4.3: Change in behaviour of as.character.POSIXt for datetime values with midnight time

viously did, and still does, drop the time component from all elements when any element has no time): ```R.version$version.string #> [1] "R version 4.2.3 (2023-03-15)" as.POSIXct(c("1975-01-01", "1975-01-01 15:27:00")) #> [1] "1975-01-01 PST" "1975-01-01 PST” ``` ```R.version$version.string #> [1] "R version 4.3.1 (2023-06-16)" as.POSIXct(c("1975-01-01", "1975-01-01 15:27:00")) #> [1] "1975-01-01 PST" "1975-01-01 PST” ``` I don’t know if this is a bug/regression in `as.character.POSIXt()`, or intended behaviour. If it is intended, I think it would benefit from some more comprehensive documentation.
