    Update time zone data files to tzdata release 2018f. · 13877d30
    Tom Lane authored
    DST law changes in Chile, Fiji, and Russia (Volgograd).
    Historical corrections for China, Japan, Macau, and North Korea.
    
    Note: like the previous tzdata update, this involves a depressingly
    large amount of semantically-meaningless churn in tzdata.zi.  That
    is a consequence of upstream's data compression method assigning
    unstable abbreviations to DST rulesets.  I complained about that
    to them last time, and this version now uses an assignment method
    that pays some heed to not changing abbreviations unnecessarily.
    So hopefully, that'll be better going forward.
