    Log Message:
    sys_timezone() no longer modifies the scfg_t.sys_timezone member itself

    ... just the returned copy (when toggling the DST flag).

    This resolve the issue of SCFG->System menu detecting changes by the sysop
    (and prompting to Save Changes when exiting) when no changes were actually made, just that DST had been auto-enabled/disabled based on the date.

Setting this to 0 would just create a near-immediate user input timeout (and not something a sysop should do).

    This fixes issue #957
