core: only set the kernel's timezone when the RTC runs in local time
We can not reliably manage any notion of local time. Every daylight saving time change or time zone change by traveling will make the time jump, and the local time might jump backwards which creates unsolvable problems with file timestamps. We will no longer tell the kernel our local time zone and leave everything set to UTC. This will effectively turn FAT timestamps into UTC timestamps. If and only if the machine is configured to read the RTC in local time mode, the kernel's time zone will be configured, but systemd-timesysnc will disable the kernel's system time to RTC syncing. In this mode, the RTC will not be managed, and external tools like Windows bootups are expected to manage the RTC's time. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=81538
