Public bug reported:
When we have:
1) a site has a timezone / country selected
2) a site that has SAML installed
3) an institution set up with a SAML auth instance
4) the SAML auth instance has 'Metadata URL for auto-refresh' set to a valid
value
The timezone gets changed because of the getTime() method in the
htdocs/auth/saml/extlib/simplesamlphp/modules/metarefresh/lib/MetaLoader.php
file setting the timezone to UTC.
This means any cron job happening after the
PluginAuthSaml::auth_saml_refresh_cron one will be using the wrong
'time' to compare to and so some cron jobs won't run when they should.
