Tom Lane 388e71af88 Make timetz_zone() stable, and correct a bug for DYNTZ abbreviations. 
Historically, timetz_zone() has used time(NULL) as the reference point
for deciding whether DST is active.  That means its result can change
intra-statement, requiring it to be marked VOLATILE (cf. 35979e6c3).
But that definition is pretty inconsistent with the way we deal with
timestamps elsewhere.  Let's make it use the transaction start time
("now()") as the reference point instead.  That lets it be marked
STABLE, and also saves a kernel call per invocation.

While at it, remove the function's use of pg_time_t and pg_localtime.
Those are inconsistent with the other code in this area, which indeed
created a bug: timetz_zone() delivered completely wrong answers if
the zone was specified by a dynamic TZ abbreviation.  (We need to do
something about that in the back branches, but the fix will look
different from this.)

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download/

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
