description:
misc: Use gmtime for conversion to UTC to avoid getenv/setenv
This patch changes how we turn time into UTC. Previously we
manipulated the TZ environment variable, but this has issues as the
strings that are manipulated could be tainted (see e.g. CERT
ENV34-C). Now we simply rely on the built-in gmtime function and avoid
touching getenv/setenv all together.
