DESCRIPTION

I am using a manual font for the clock widget and cannot get the font of the time zone to match the custom font i set for the widget. 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set "Show time zone" as  "always"
2. Set a different font from the system using the "Text display" "Manual option"

OBSERVED RESULT

The time zone will show in system font no matter what manual font is used.
Screenshot of the settings and the widget behavior attached.

EXPECTED RESULT

Time zone text displaying in the manual font like the time and the date.

applets/digital-clock: apply font family to time zone label, too

This appears to have been missed in the copy-paste from other labels
where we have to manually apply the font settings one at a time because
we want to manually set font.pixelSize. As such, we need to remember to
do them all!
FIXED-IN: 6.6.7
