Below might be needed if we want to support session timezone?

- Add a SQL statement and API to set the current session timezone?

https://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14225/ch4datetime.htm#i1006728
- Add a SQL statement and API to get the current session timezone? 
Link: 
https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSEPEK_10.0.0/sqlref/src/tpc/db2z_currenttz.html
- Add time zone specific expressions? 
Link: 
http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSEPEK_10.0.0/sqlref/src/tpc/db2z_tzspecificexpression.html


More works are needed if we want to add a new data type {{TIMESTAMP WITH TIME 
ZONE}}

> Support session local timezone
> ------------------------------
>
>                 Key: SPARK-18350
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-18350
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>          Components: SQL
>            Reporter: Reynold Xin
>
> As of Spark 2.1, Spark SQL assumes the machine timezone for datetime 
> manipulation, which is bad if users are not in the same timezones as the 
> machines, or if different users have different timezones.
> We should introduce a session local timezone setting that is used for 
> execution.
> An explicit non-goal is locale handling.
