 The attached patch uses a new API call to http://api.wordpress.org/core
 /ip-to-zoneinfo/1.0/ to retrieve a suggested time zone based on client
 (not server) IP address.

 A button is added next to the existing dropdown list of time zones
 providing the option to "Suggest a time zone". This calls the API using an
 AJAX/JSONP request which then auto-selects a time zone for the user from
 the dropdown.

 Visual feedback is via a spinner when fetching and then a text response.

 Additionally the Date and Time settings have been split out to a new
 settings page.
