As a user I want PhotoPrism to estimate the timezone of my images so that the sorting with other photos with a similar time is correct

@benmccann The problem here was that images from one device had a time + timezone: e.g. 19:00 CET (which is 18:00 UTC). Another image had only a time but no information about the timezone e.g. 18:45 in this case 18:45 was set as local time and UTC time.
As we sort by UTC the 19:00 image was sorted before the 18:45 image.
Instead of adding more config options we decided to estimate the timezone.
