Add Time#atZone

“inZone” would be more idiomatic English, if that matters. You’re “in” an
area, like a country or a time zone; you’re “at” a particular place, like
home or work or 10 Downing St.

Subject: RCR: Add Time#atZone

Analogous to Time#gmtime, but sets the time to zone z, where z is
specified as GMT +/- some number of hours (or possibly using the
standard “named” timezones). e.g.
t = Time.now.atZone(+3) or t = Time.now.atZone(“CST”)
