Title:
  When displaying the selected timezone, we should show the city the
  user picked

Status in ubuntu-system-settings package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Currently, if I search timezones for Boston, and select Boston in the
  results, the Time & Date page will display "New York" as the timezone.
  Which is not super user friendly.

  On the desktop, we save the city name the user picks alongside the ISO
  timezone name.  Specifically, it's stored in gsettings:
  "com.canonical.indicator.datetime" schema, key "timezone-name".  It's
  stored like "TIMEZONE NAME" -- that is, the ISO timezone followed by
  one space, followed by the user visible name for that timezone.

  Indicator-datetime and unity-control-center already support that key.
  We should too (I guess we should set it in addition to calling
  org.freedesktop.timedate1.SetTimezone).  It might mean extending the
  time-date plugin's SetTimezone call to take two arguments -- the
  timezone and the name.

  This change should be coordinated with unity8, which also sets the
  timezone on the first device boot.
