Ability to set timezone

[Eric24]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
There does not appear to be a way to specify the timezone reference used by the component (i.e. it uses only the browser's timezone). This is not always correct, as there are times when an application or even a specific date field needs to be displayed in a specific timezone.

Describe the solution you'd like
A way to override the default timezone with a specific timezone.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Our current solution is to manipulate the input value, adding an offset value to make the component's default timezone match that of the desired timezone, and then do the same on the way out. It's definitely a hack.

@Eric24 thanks for your suggestion! This should go in the next major release. Do you think a timezone prop would work?

[Eric24]

Yes, timezone would certainly make sense as a prop; the other option is tz, which is pretty common.

By default, the component would work as it does now (using the browser's timezone), but if defined, it just uses the prop value to explicitly set the timezone of the passed-in date value.
