TimeWithZone#to_formatted_s drops timezone information

#1796

ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone#to_formatted_s drops timezone information in the created string.


>> require 'active_support/version'; ActiveSupport::VERSION::STRING
=> "2.2.2"
>> Time.zone = "Canberra"
=> "Canberra"
>> Time.zone.local(1998,01,19,7,10,12).to_s(:full)
=> "1998-01-19 07:10:12 +1100"  # correct
>> Time.zone.local(1998,01,19,7,10,12).to_formatted_s(:full)
=> "Mon Jan 19 07:10:12 UTC 1998"  # wrong

on the Time class #to_s and #to_formatted_s are documented to be aliases, so this behaviour was suprising to me.
