There are certain cases when the the user's configured time zone (in their account settings) differs from their _actual_ time zone. This might, for example, be because an admin user created the account for the user, and the default time zone was selected on creation (eg. UTC).
**Acceptance criteria**
* On Account settings → Settings, display a non-dismissable Primer warning Display an error info banner when a user's configured time zone offset (from UTC) differs from their system (computer) time zone,
* Title: "Incorrect time zone configured"
* Text: "The time zone selected in your user settings differs from the the time zone of your computer."
* Primary action: Use system time Configure
* Picks This redirects to the first time zone from Account settings → Settings
* Secondary: Ignore
* _\[open\] DIomisses the list that corresponds to the user time banner for a month_
**Technical notes**
* How do we detect the _effective/real_ user time zone?
* Can using a VPN with a different region setting affect this?
**Permissions and visibility considerations**
* None
**Translation considerations**
* Error texts are new strings
* Use `button_configure` for "Configure"
**Out of scope**
* The current proposition only warns users when they are already on the right settings page. Do we want to nudge users/inform them Automatic detection and update of the discrepancy in the normal course of their navigation?
* We probably needed an error banner that's transversal. time zone (separate feature)
