time_SUITE: Make consistency/1 work in any timezone
time_SUITE:consistency/1 would only work in CET, which was reasonable when the test suites were always run in Stockholm. Nowadays it is expected that you can run the test suite in any timezone. Therefore, only make sure that that difference between localtime/1 and universaltime/1 is "reasonable".
