Issue

https://otwarchive.atlassian.net/browse/AO3-6576

Purpose

This removes the extraneous <span>s wrapped around the date/time elements on news posts, work blurbs, and anything else that uses date_in_zone to improve screenreader accessibility. A comment on the Jira ticket also noted that the time zone's title seemed strange, so it has been updated to use the unabbreviated time zone name instead of the Country/City it previously used.
