Paul Eggert 5355e20f81 zic.8: Sync from tzdb upstream 
Make zic.8 a copy of the upstream tzdb version, except that
the tzdb version's first line is replaced by man-pages
boilerplate, and omit features introduced after 2017b
(the most recent merge to glibc).

This has the following effect:

Document --version, --help.

Document new -v warnings.

Remove -y.

Document that input should be text files, and similar restrictions
on names.

Document negative DST.

Document what is meant by "white space".

Do some minor reformatting.

Use .B for as-is keywords, like commands.

New section "EXTENDED EXAMPLE".

Omit some changes that were made on the man-pages side, notably by
changing some "timezone"s back to the preferred-upstream "time
zone" when talking about traditional time zones as opposed to
POSIX timezone settings.  Also, fix some formatting glitches.

README 

This package contains Linux man pages for sections 1 through 8.  Some
more information is given in the 'man-pages-x.y.Announce' file.

Installing and uninstalling
===========================
"make install" will copy these man pages to /usr/share/man/man[1-8].

To install to a path different from /usr, use
"make install prefix=/install/path".

"make remove" or "make uninstall" will remove any man page in this
distribution from its destination.  Use with caution, and remember to
use "prefix" if desired, as with the "install" target.

"make" or "make all" will perform "make uninstall" followed by "make
install".

Man page overlap and duplication
================================
Note that sometimes these pages are duplicates of pages also distributed
in other packages.  This has been reported about:
