fix: use asset timezone

[ADecametre]

Display assets with their own timezone instead of the local timezone
Resolves #696

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes
  • Improved asset date and time display by correctly applying timezone information from photo metadata.
  • Prevented timestamps from being interpreted using the device’s local timezone when EXIF data includes a UTC offset.
  • Invalid or missing timezone information now safely defaults to UTC.
  • Standardized timezone offset handling for more consistent timestamp accuracy across assets.

- Around line 50-62: Update parseExifTimeZone to preserve valid IANA timezone
names such as America/Los_Angeles in addition to converting UTC offsets, so
TZDate receives the EXIF timezone instead of falling back to the host timezone;
keep the existing assetDate and time construction flow unchanged.

to anchor the match to the complete value, restrict hours to 00–23 and minutes
to 00–59, and return the existing UTC fallback for invalid or trailing-content
