First PR to replace pytz with zoneinfo for UTC handling across codebase.
This PR migrates all UTC timezone handling from pytz to Python’s standard
library zoneinfo. The pytz library is now deprecated, and its documentation
recommends using zoneinfo for all new code. This update modernizes our
codebase, removes legacy pytz usage, and ensures compatibility with
current best practices for timezone management in Python 3.9+. No functional
changes to timezone logic - just a direct replacement for UTC handling.

We have been bucketing all users into the relative dates experiment
since May 18, 2020. We no longer need to keep this as an
ExperimentWaffleFlag and can convert to a CourseWaffleFlag (so it
continues to support exemptions).

This is part of a removal of the many override methods of toggle
flag/namespace classes. This allows us to remove imports of test modules
from production code.
ORA2 (openassessment) problems have multiple dates associated with are
not bound to the `due` date that is modified by Personalized Learner
Schedules. We expose the ORA2 dates separately in the dates page
so that learners aren't surprised by the differing deadlines.

- set up util function to use Amazon SES for sending calendar
sync emails.
- remove old sailthru code which we originally implemented for
this functionality
- include ADR on our decision to use SES instead of Sailthru.
This is an unused-as-of-yet utility function to generate a bunch
of ics files for a user's course schedule. Will be used as part
of the calendar_sync feature package.
