Subject: [PATCH] fix: dynamically update timestamps based on the chosen
 timezone in the Advanced Settings (#196977)

## Summary

This PR fixes the
[#190562](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/190562) where the
created and updated timestamps for Dashboards do not respect the default
timezone settings in advanced settings.

Currently, if the user changes the timezone in the advanced settings,
the timestamps for the activity monitor flyout still display timestamps
from the default browser timezone. This PR ensures that the timestamps
display in the desired timezone.
