Fix Windows timezone test failures

- Add test utility functions to handle zoneinfo availability checks
- Use @requires_zoneinfo_utc decorator for tests that specifically need UTC
- Fall back to safe timezone (localtime) for tests that just need any timezone
- Skip tests gracefully when zoneinfo/UTC data is not available on Windows

This addresses the ZoneInfoNotFoundError: 'No time zone found with key UTC'
errors on Windows systems without proper timezone data installed.
