✍️ Description
pct create --timezone only accepts timezones from zone.tab or the special value 'host'. Etc/* zones (like Etc/UTC) are valid Linux timezones but not accepted by pct, causing container creation to fail with 'invalid time zone' error.
This change automatically maps any Etc/* timezone to 'host', which inherits the host's timezone - giving users the expected behavior when their Proxmox host is set to Etc/UTC.
