Matt T. Proud e86f4d9dfd Convert time readers to represent time in UTC.
Go's time.Time represents time as UTC in its fundamental data type.
That said, when using ``time.Unix(...)``, it sets the zone for the
time representation to the local.  Unfortunately with diagnosis and
our tests, it is a PITA to jump between various zones, even though
the serialized version remains the same.

To keep things easy, all places where times are generated or read
are converted into UTC.  These conversions are cheap, for
``Time.In`` merely changes a pointer reference in the struct,
nothing more.  This enables me to diagnose test failures with fixture
data very easily.
