[feature] automatic vpn gateway selection, based on timezone

This is a first approach to automatic gateways selection.
More things are missing:

- allow manual selection, by location or country code.
- take the hemisphere into account.
- expose the selected gw to the api/cli

but overall seems this is a good approach to make 0.10 release usable in
terms of vpn.

- Resolves: #8804
