Update time zone data files to tzdata release 2018f.
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.
