Convert birthdays to local time (1.06 KB, patch)

Description Gert Kulyk 2011-09-20 19:46:58 UTC 
Updating my gnome environment, I also tested gnome-contacts (last version:  0.1.5.2). While everything else seems to work fine, all birthday dates are shown one day in the future as if there was a timezone problem or something like this, what is annoying. (For the record, I'm using german locale and timezone settings).

Convert birthdays to local time

Folks store dates as UTC, but birthdays are typically in "local" time,
which the eds backend converted to UTC. We need to convert back to
avoid sometimes showing the date offset.
