Steps to reproduce the issue
Closes #22711
Enable the sending of Action Log entries to a Super Admin by Mail in Joomla 3.9
Set your Joomla Global Timezone to be something the other side of the world
Generate a load of emails
Expected result
Any reference to the date/time an event occured should be translated to the Joomla Global Configuration Timezone/offset
Actual result
The date/time right now is UTC/GMT, but a Joomla Super Admin the other side of the world (with a server another third of the way around the world) is confused and assumes its local time, so would be best when giving the date/time to tell the recipient WHAT timezone that timestamp relates to.

This is actually sent in the timezone of the current logged in user. If the recipient is in a different timezone then the date is wrong.
Changed this to:
- Hardcode the time format (so the email doesn't have a different format based on the active user)
- Hardcode the date/time string to UTC
Good to go here, please test
