Log message:
Remove tz, the kernel timezone.
After removing timezone support from date(1), msdosfs, gettimeofday(2),
settimeofday(2), boot_config(8), config(8), and introducing kern.utc_offset
sysctl(2) to replace the DST/TIMEZONE options(4) to support running the RTC
at an offset from UTC, the kernel timezone is unused and we can delete it.
With this commit the kernel timezone now appears to be extinct in
upstream BSD, though it does survive in XNU:
https://github.com/opensource-apple/xnu/blob/0a798f6738bc1db01281fc08ae024145e84df927/bsd/conf/param.c#L83
Prompted by tedu@ some time back, and inspired by NetBSD and FreeBSD's
work in this area.
