Ryan Harper has proposed merging ~raharper/cloud-init:logging-gmtime into 
cloud-init:master.

Requested reviews:
  cloud-init commiters (cloud-init-dev)

For more details, see:

Configure logging module to always use UTC time (time.gmtime())

Currently the python logging module will default to a local time which may 
contain an TZ offset in the values it produces.  Switching to UTC time for 
logging produces consistent values in the cloud-init.log file and avoids issues 
when the timezone is changed during boot.
