    Sync zoneinfo database with tzdata2015f from ftp://ftp.iana.org/tz/releases
    
    * asia: North Korea switches to +0830 on 2015-08-15. (Thanks to
        Steffen Thorsen.) The abbreviation remains "KST". (Thanks to
        Robert Elz.)
    
    * europe: Moldova starts and ends DST at 00:00 UTC, not at 01:00 UTC.
        (Thanks to Roman Tudos.) Also mention that Herbert Samuel
        introduced the term "Summer Time".
    
    * northamerica: Comments for America/Halifax and America/Glace_Bay have
        been improved. (Thanks to Brian Inglis.)
    
    * southamerica: Uruguay no longer observes DST. (Thanks to
        Steffen Thorsen and Pablo Camargo.)
    
    * Theory: The Theory file mentions naming issues earlier, as these seem
        to be poorly publicized (thanks to Gilmore Davidson for reporting
        the problem).
    
    * Various: Data entries have been simplified for Atlantic/Canary,
        Europe/Simferopol, Europe/Sofia, and Europe/Tallinn.  This yields
        slightly smaller installed data files for Europe/Simferopol and
        Europe/Tallinn. It does not affect timestamps. (Thanks to
        Howard Hinnant.)
