Description
This issue is one of a number that relate to datashader support of timeseries.
```
>>> hv.__version__, bokeh.__version__, ds.__version__, panel.__version__, hvplot.__version__
('1.15.1', '2.4.3', '0.14.2', '0.13.1', '0.8.1')
```
```python
>>> timestamps = [pd.Timestamp('2022-04-01 0{0}:00:00-0400'.format(hour)) for hour in range(10)]
>>> df = pd.DataFrame({'timestamp':timestamps, 'SPY':np.random.rand(10), 'NDAQ':np.random.rand(10)})
>>> df.dtypes
timestamp datetime64[ns, pytz.FixedOffset(-240)]
SPY float64
NDAQ float64
dtype: object
```
Here is the difference before using `datashade=True` and after:

(Note that the color cycles are mismatched as reported in https://github.com/holoviz/hvplot/issues/934)
This is probably because offsets are not handled when converted datetimes to integer in datashader. I expect this issue may need to be moved to the datashader repo later...
