Subject: Use Flask-Babel to localize datetime in the History Page
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

By formatting datetime on the server, we get nice localized datetime
strings that are adapted to the currently-selected language.  Example:

- English: "Apr 26, 2020, 3:58:54 PM"
- French: "26 avr. 2020 à 15:58:54"
- German: "26.04.2020, 15:58:54"
- Spanish: "26 abr. 2020 15:58:54"
- Indonesian: "26 Apr 2020 15.58.54"
- Chinese: "2020年4月26日 下午3:58:54"

However, there is a downside: time is not adapted to the user timezone.

The solution is to define a timezone on the server: we use the server OS
timezone by default, and it can be customized through the
BABEL_DEFAULT_TIMEZONE setting.  It's still not ideal, because it assumes
that all users are in the same timezone (the one configured on the server).
