describes the format of the TZ variable when it's not an IANA name.

When TZ does not name an IANA zone, we could potentially create a new
chrono::time_zone object, generated from the std and dst names, with the
appropriate offsets and DST transitions. Then current_zone() would return a
pointer to that custom zone.
