Undocumented APP_TIMEZONE env option #652

Description:

Maybe I'm just blind but I didn't find any documentation regarding APP_TIMEZONE variable in .env. I just noticed its behavior has changed recently between 5.4.6 and 5.4.7 and now it shouldn't override the default timezone.

https://github.com/laravel/lumen-framework/blob/v5.4.6/src/Application.php#L83

https://github.com/laravel/lumen-framework/blob/v5.4.7/src/Application.php#L83

That's okay, @martinsik

Because it must not override with UTC value when no dotenv's is found.

The app environment has other directives from PHP.INI and configure/config functions that should be respected too.

Any variable in your .env file can be overridden by external environment variables such as server-level or system-level environment variables.
