Description

For localdatetime and localtime, it would be beneficial to be able to pass in an arbitrary time zone. Setting the time zone globally using date_default_timezone_set won't work, because this affects all date processing globally in PHP. The time zone only needs to be applied when using localdatetime and localtime. Thank you.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the current implementation of localdatetime and localtime filters in the Twig extension, then add an optional timezone parameter to both filters, parsing it with DateTimeZone and applying it to the DateTime object before formatting.
