Description

I saw there is few clocks with the ability to show time of different timezone. Each of them implement (or try to) a system to handle different timezones. A lib allowing to get a date with a custom TZ and having a list of all TZ would likely be useful for theses clocks

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine existing clock apps in the Bangle.js repository that attempt timezone handling. Evaluate the Espruino JavaScript environment's date and time capabilities. Design a library that provides a list of timezones and converts dates to a specified timezone. Consider using the IANA timezone database or a lightweight subset.
