Description
Right now, to make bz queries we use the current date and a delta: it means that the url is depending of the current date.
It exists a feature on Bugzilla which allow to use for example:
f1: creation_ts
v1: greaterthan
o1: -1y
to get bugs created 1 year ago.

Research direction
Start by locating the Bugzilla query construction used by bugbot and inspect how the current-date delta is inserted into query URLs. Update the relevant query generation so Bugzilla's -Xw, -Xm, or -Xy relative-date values can produce stable URLs, then verify that generated queries still select the intended creation-time range.
