Review Comment:
   Good catch, you're right. `TimeType` never forces the zone:
   
   - `TypeApiOps.apply`'s `TimeType` branch builds `TimeTypeApiOps(tt)` without 
referencing the by-name `zoneId`, so the thunk is never evaluated.
   - `TimeType` codegen renders via `timeFormatter` (the framework hook only 
covers the nanos timestamp types).
   - `Cast.needsTimeZone(TimeType, StringType)` is `false`, so the cast is 
resolved even with an unset zone.
   
   So the `UTC_OPT` was unnecessary and the comment was misleading. I've 
reverted to the zone-less `Cast(child, StringType)` and dropped the comment 
(verified `CastWithAnsiOn/OffSuite` "cast time to string" still passes). Thanks!
