Use Z UTC suffix in EventBus emitted events rather than +00:00
Closed, ResolvedPublic2 Estimated Story Points

Description

EventBus currently emits datetime fields with timestamps like YYYY-mm-ddTHH:MM:SS+00:00. While this is formally compatible with YYYY-mm-ddTHH:MM:SSZ, we'd like to be as consistent as possible. Let's make the EventBus extension emit the datetime suffixed with 'Z' instead of '+00:00'.

@Ottomata, this task can be closed right? Because of the changes we're doing on EventGate.
Closing it. Please, reopen if I'm wrong.

Not quite! The new monolog based events do indeed use 'Z', but the ones built in EventBus extension don't yet. This should be a simple change, and will likely do it this quarter when we start moving some EventBus extension mediawiki events to EventGate.
