Description

It is ok when the dSS internally use UTC time, because it is easier to handle timer events etc. But whenever the time is visible to the user (web UI, log files, ...) the user should get the local time. The timezone (and daylight savings) should be configurable via UI.

Time in the logs and in JSON is now printed as local time. Events can be scheduled either in local or in UTC time (depending on the ISO 8601 string). Internally the dSS keeps using UTC, conversion to local time is done only on output.

The timezone (and daylight savings) should be configurable via UI.

This is covered by #419

Merged into mainline.

One problem remains however, we still are investigating how to deal with it:

when daylight savings happen on the system or when time zone is changed while the dSS is running, the dSS will not notice this changes and needs to be restarted.
