- Split tzselect script into a subpackage to prevent awk getting into minimal
containers and recommend tzselect by the main package
Fixes bsc#1230054

- Unify SLE-15-SP6 and Factory packages (PED#8158).
This is still related to bsc#1213470. We're applying this fix for
SLE-15-SP6 too. This changelog entry is meant to bring over the SLE
information, so the same package can be used for both code streams.
- This patch has long been removed on Factory but was never mentioned
explicitly, it was related to ticket bsc#1202310, a minor update to
reflect Chile's DST change back in 2022.

- Use /bin/sh for tzselect. Used to require bash for the 'select'
builtin but has a fallback meanwhile so no need for explicit bash
anymore.

- Drop the timezone-java (bsc#1213470).
After thorough consideration of possible problems that arise from
having a timezone package specifically for the Java ecosystem,
Fridrich Strba and I have decided to drop the package altogether.
Doing so means the JDK will use its built-in timezone data that is
updated quarterly, when refreshed JDK versions are released.
While this does mean there could be situations where there is a bit
of a mismatch between the 'timezone' package's data, and the data
that is used by JDK, in practice the difference will be minimal and
short-lived.
So we've established this to be the best course of action.
- Remove _multibuild, not longer required.

- update to 2023d:
* Ittoqqortoormiit, Greenland changes time zones on
2024-03-31.
* Vostok, Antarctica changed time zones on 2023-12-18.

* Fix predictions for DST transitions in Palestine in
2072-2075, correcting a typo introduced in 2023a.
* Vostok, Antarctica changed to +05 on 2023-12-18. It had
been at +07 (not +06) for years.
* Change data for Casey, Antarctica to agree with
timeanddate.com, by adding five time zone changes since 2020.
Casey is now at +08 instead of +11.

its standard time from -03 to -02 on 2023-03-25, not on
2023-10-28.

a single transition into a DST regime. Previously,
it incorrectly assumed DST was in effect before the transition
too.
* tzselect no longer creates temporary files.
* tzselect no longer mishandles the following:
* Spaces and most other special characters in BUGEMAIL,
PACKAGE, TZDIR, and VERSION.
* TZ strings when using mawk 1.4.3, which mishandles
regular expressions of the form /X{2,}/.
* ISO 6709 coordinates when using an awk that lacks the
GNU extension of newlines in -v option-arguments.
* Non UTF-8 locales when using an iconv command that
lacks the GNU //TRANSLIT extension.
* zic no longer mishandles data for Palestine after the
year 2075.
