What does this PR change? What problem does it solve?
Restic lists snapshots in user's current timezone. It's very convenient but might be confusing in case of multiple users accessing the same repository without realizing they're on different timezones.
This change is an attempt to solve it by showing one-line information to the bottom of the snapshot list (plus, it is a best effort trying to get the timezone info, since I am not sure how reliable would this method be on non-Linux operating systems).
Was the change previously discussed in an issue or on the forum?
