Remove hard-wired lists of timezone abbreviations in favor of providing configuration files that can be altered by a DBA. The australian_timezones GUC setting disappears, replaced by a timezone_abbreviations setting (set this to 'Australia' to get the effect of australian_timezones). The list of zone names defined by default has undergone a bit of cleanup, too. Documentation still needs some work --- in particular, should we fix Table B-4, or just get rid of it? Joachim Wieland, with some editorializing by moi.

Remove cvs keywords from all files.

ACSST 37800 D # Central Australia (not in zic)
Update time zone data files to tzdata release 2014h. Most zones in the Russian Federation are subtracting one or two hours as of 2014-10-26. Update the meanings of the abbreviations IRKT, KRAT, MAGT, MSK, NOVT, OMST, SAKT, VLAT, YAKT, YEKT to match. The IANA timezone database has adopted abbreviations of the form AxST/AxDT for all Australian time zones, reflecting what they believe to be current majority practice Down Under. These names do not conflict with usage elsewhere (other than ACST for Acre Summer Time, which has been in disuse since 1994). Accordingly, adopt these names into our "Default" timezone abbreviation set. The "Australia" abbreviation set now contains only CST,EAST,EST,SAST,SAT,WST, all of which are thought to be mostly historical usage. Note that SAST has also been changed to be South Africa Standard Time in the "Default" abbreviation set. Add zone abbreviations SRET (Asia/Srednekolymsk) and XJT (Asia/Urumqi), and use WSST/WSDT for western Samoa. Also a DST law change in the Turks & Caicos Islands (America/Grand_Turk), and numerous corrections for historical time zone data.

# CONFLICT! CST is not unique

# - CST: Central Standard Time (America)
Add CST (China Standard Time) to our lists of timezone abbreviations. For some reason this seems to have been missed when the lists in src/timezone/tznames/ were first constructed. We can't put it in Default because of the conflict with US CST, but we should certainly list it among the alternative entries in Asia.txt. (I checked for other oversights, but all the other abbreviations that are in current use according to the IANA files seem to be accounted for.) Noted while responding to bug #12326.

EST 36000 # Eastern Standard Time (not in zic)
Support timezone abbreviations that sometimes change. Up to now, PG has assumed that any given timezone abbreviation (such as "EDT") represents a constant GMT offset in the usage of any particular region; we had a way to configure what that offset was, but not for it to be changeable over time. But, as with most things horological, this view of the world is too simplistic: there are numerous regions that have at one time or another switched to a different GMT offset but kept using the same timezone abbreviation. Almost the entire Russian Federation did that a few years ago, and later this month they're going to do it again. And there are similar examples all over the world. To cope with this, invent the notion of a "dynamic timezone abbreviation", which is one that is referenced to a particular underlying timezone (as defined in the IANA timezone database) and means whatever it currently means in that zone. For zones that use or have used daylight-savings time, the standard and DST abbreviations continue to have the property that you can specify standard or DST time and get that time offset whether or not DST was theoretically in effect at the time. However, the abbreviations mean what they meant at the time in question (or most recently before that time) rather than being absolutely fixed. The standard abbreviation-list files have been changed to use this behavior for abbreviations that have actually varied in meaning since 1970. The old simple-numeric definitions are kept for abbreviations that have not changed, since they are a bit faster to resolve. While this is clearly a new feature, it seems necessary to back-patch it into all active branches, because otherwise use of Russian zone abbreviations is going to become even more problematic than it already was. This change supersedes the changes in commit 513d06ded et al to modify the fixed meanings of the Russian abbreviations; since we've not shipped that yet, this will avoid an undesirably incompatible (not to mention incorrect) change in behavior for timestamps between 2011 and 2014. This patch makes some cosmetic changes in ecpglib to keep its usage of datetime lookup tables as similar as possible to the backend code, but doesn't do anything about the increasingly obsolete set of timezone abbreviation definitions that are hard-wired into ecpglib. Whatever we do about that will likely not be appropriate material for back-patching. Also, a potential free() of a garbage pointer after an out-of-memory failure in ecpglib has been fixed. This patch also fixes pre-existing bugs in DetermineTimeZoneOffset() that caused it to produce unexpected results near a timezone transition, if both the "before" and "after" states are marked as standard time. We'd only ever thought about or tested transitions between standard and DST time, but that's not what's happening when a zone simply redefines their base GMT offset. In passing, update the SGML documentation to refer to the Olson/zoneinfo/ zic timezone database as the "IANA" database, since it's now being maintained under the auspices of IANA.
