Display correct timezone on timestamp for question submission

The view for submission history used to grab the timezone from the database (UTC) and
appeded the TIME_ZONE variable after (could be any time zone). Adjusted displayed
timedate to the TIME_ZONE variable. Added unittest checks the localized datetime
object used by submission history for the expected hour difference.
