Review comment:
       We want this to actually be unset though, right? Similar to 
https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/daa5c18e9697a6455a7a75fec19594543c17b21e/r/tests/testthat/test-Array.R#L264-L267
 to simulate the circumstance where TZ is unset (though we might want to use 
`TZ = NA` instead of `TZ = ""` there since `NA` _unsets_ the variable instead 
of simply setting it to `""`)
   
   ``` r
   Sys.getenv("TZ")
   #> [1] ""
   
   timestamp_r <- as.POSIXct("2018-10-07 19:04:05")
   timestamp_r
   #> [1] "2018-10-07 19:04:05 CDT"
   attributes(timestamp_r)
   #> $class
   #> [1] "POSIXct" "POSIXt" 
   #> 
   #> $tzone
   #> [1] ""
   as.integer(timestamp_r)
   #> [1] 1538957045
   
   Sys.setenv("TZ" = "Australia/Brisbane")
   
   timestamp_r <- as.POSIXct("2018-10-07 19:04:05")
   timestamp_r
   #> [1] "2018-10-07 19:04:05 AEST"
   attributes(timestamp_r)
   #> $class
   #> [1] "POSIXct" "POSIXt" 
   #> 
   #> $tzone
   #> [1] ""
   as.integer(timestamp_r)
   #> [1] 1538903045
   
   Sys.unsetenv("TZ")
   
   timestamp_r <- as.POSIXct("2018-10-07 19:04:05")
   timestamp_r
   #> [1] "2018-10-07 19:04:05 CDT"
   attributes(timestamp_r)
   #> $class
   #> [1] "POSIXct" "POSIXt" 
   #> 
   #> $tzone
   #> [1] ""
   as.integer(timestamp_r)
   #> [1] 1538957045
   ```
