Jef Driesen 156f54302d Add basic timezone support
Allthough most dive computers always use local time and don't support
timezones at all, there are a few exceptions. There are two different
sources of timezone information:

 - Some of the newer Uwatec/Scubapro devices use UTC internally and also
   support a timezone setting. This UTC offset is currently taken into
   account to obtain the dive date/time, but the UTC offset itself is
   lost.

 - Uwatec/Scubapro and Reefnet devices rely on the clock of the host
   system to synchronize the internal device clock and calculate the
   dive date/time. The consequence is that the resulting date/time is
   always in the timezone of the host system.

In order to preserve this timezone information, the dc_datetime_t
structure is extended with a new "timezone" field, containing the UTC
offset in seconds. Devices without timezone support will set the field
to the special value DC_TIMEZONE_NONE.

The dc_datetime_localtime() and dc_datetime_gmtime() functions will
automatically populate the new field with respectively the local
timezone offset and zero. The dc_datetime_mktime() function will take
into account the new timezone field for the conversion to UTC. The
special value DC_TIMEZONE_NONE is interpreted as zero.
