In the IANA timezone code, tzparse() always tries to load the zone
file named by TZDEFRULES ("posixrules").  Previously, we'd hacked
that logic to skip the load in the "lastditch" code path, which we use
only to initialize the default "GMT" zone during GUC initialization.
That's critical for a couple of reasons: since we do not support leap
seconds, we *must not* allow "GMT" to have leap seconds, and since this
case runs before the GUC subsystem is fully alive, we'd really rather
not take the risk of pg_open_tzfile throwing any errors.

However, that still left the code reading TZDEFRULES on every other
call, something we'd noticed to the extent of having added code to cache
the result so it was only done once per process not a lot of times.
Andres Freund complained about the static data space used up for the
cache; but as long as the logic was like this, there was no point in
trying to get rid of that space.

We can improve matters by looking a bit more closely at what the IANA
code actually needs the TZDEFRULES data for.  One thing it does is
that if "posixrules" is a leap-second-aware zone, the leap-second
behavior will be absorbed into every POSIX-style zone specification.
However, that's a behavior we'd really prefer to do without, since
for our purposes the end effect is to render every POSIX-style zone
name unsupported.  Otherwise, the TZDEFRULES data is used only if
the POSIX zone name specifies DST but doesn't include a transition
date rule (e.g., "EST5EDT" rather than "EST5EDT,M3.2.0,M11.1.0").
That is a minority case for our purposes --- in particular, it
never happens when tzload() invokes tzparse() to interpret a
transition date rule string found in a tzdata zone file.

Hence, if we legislate that we're going to ignore leap-second data
from "posixrules", we can postpone the TZDEFRULES load into the path
where we actually need to substitute for a missing date rule string.
That means it will never happen at all in common scenarios, making it
reasonable to dynamically allocate the cache space when it does happen.
Even when the data is already loaded, this saves some cycles in the
common code path since we avoid a memcpy of 23KB or so.  And, IMO at
least, this is a less ugly hack on the IANA logic than what we had
before, since it's not messing with the lastditch-vs-regular code paths.

Back-patch to all supported branches, not so much because this is a
critical change as that I want to keep all our copies of the IANA
timezone code in sync.
