adjustDateToTimezone Function

Adjust a Date object to show time in one time zone as if it is in the local time zone. This is useful when showing sunrise and sunset times for a project location in a different time zone and the time displayed should appear as if the user is seeing clock in project location. Example 1: If you have a UTC time for London (UTC +0100) and you want to display it in Eastern-US (UTC -0400) as if you were in London.

  londonDate = new Date("July 22, 2018 07:22:13 +0100");
  in Eastern-US londonDate will show as '7/22/2018, 2:22:13 AM'
  adjustedDate = adjustDateToTimezone(londonDate, 1*60);
  in location Eastern-US adjustedDate will show as '7/22/2018, 7:22:13 AM'

Example 2: If you have a UTC time for your location (UTC -0400) and you want to display the time as if you are in Western-US (UTC -0700).

  easternDate = new Date("July 22, 2018 07:22:13 -0400");
  adjustedDate = adjustDateToTimezone(easternDate, -7*60);
  in location Eastern-US adjustedDate will show as '7/22/2018, 7:22:13 AM'

The utcOffset must be the time in minutes between the UTC and the desired time zone at the date specified by inDateTime. For example, if you want the time offset to New York, NY and the date is during Daylight Saving Time, utcOffset should be -240 (-4 * 60). If the date falls during Standard Time in New York, utcOffset will be -300 (-5 * 60).
