Documentation: fixedTimeZone
The `gitiles.fixedTimeZone` parameter was introduced by 6d920bc73e but
left undocumented.
I (committer) have copied the commit message made by Dave Borowitz with
a bit for formatting. Hence I am assigning him the authorship.

## Core configuration
+### Fixed time zone
+
+By default dates are formatted including the local user time zone as that
+matches git tools. Some users/administrators may prefer normalizing to a
+particular timezone so times are directly comparable without doing timezone
+arithmetic.
+
+Setting `fixedTimeZone` to a valid Java TimeZone ID causes all dates in the UI
+to be implicitly converted to this timezone, and the now-redundant timezone
+offset to be dropped from the output.
+
+```
+[gitiles]
+ fixedTimeZone = UTC
