tz: server-wide display timezone via TZ env var (default EST/EDT)

User-reported issue: server logs were timestamped in UTC ("05:36:20"
when local was ~01:36 EDT), and the PDF report's "Created" footer
similarly showed raw UTC.  Inconsistent with the modal which already
converts to browser local via toLocaleString.

Solution: standard Linux TZ env var.  Set once in the container, and:
  - Python's datetime.now() uses local
  - Logging module's timestamps use local
  - matplotlib renderers + report_pdf formatters use local
  - astimezone() conversions resolve to the configured TZ

DB columns stay UTC (created_at uses SQLite's strftime('%Y-...Z', 'now')
which is always UTC, regardless of TZ env var — proper "store UTC,
display local" pattern).

Changes:
  - Dockerfile: install tzdata (python:3.11-slim omits the timezone
    database), set default TZ=America/New_York
  - sfm/report_pdf.py: _fmt_iso_to_bw and _split_iso_to_date_time now
    convert UTC inputs (Z-suffixed) to local via astimezone(); naïve
    inputs (BW recorded-at, already unit-local) returned as-is.
    New _to_display_local helper centralizes the logic.
  - "Created" line in the PDF page footer now uses the converted
    timestamp.

Override per-deployment via the TZ env var in docker-compose
(separate commit on terra-view side).
