Upgrade time zone rules to 2018d
This update contains the IANA 2018d update.
IANA release notes:
Briefly:
Palestine starts DST a week earlier in 2018.
Add support for vanguard and rearguard data consumers.
Add subsecond precision to source data format, though not to data.
Changes to future time stamps
In 2018, Palestine starts DST on March 24, not March 31.
Adjust future predictions accordingly. (Thanks to Sharef Mustafa.)
Changes to past and future time stamps
Casey Station in Antarctica changed from +11 to +08 on 2018-03-11
at 04:00. (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.)
Changes to past time stamps
Historical transitions for Uruguay, represented by
America/Montevideo, have been updated per official legal documents,
replacing previous data mainly originating from the inventions of
Shanks & Pottenger. This has resulted in adjustments ranging from
30 to 90 minutes in either direction over at least two dozen
distinct periods ranging from one day to several years in length.
A mere handful of pre-1991 transitions are unaffected; data since
then has come from more reliable contemporaneous reporting. These
changes affect various timestamps in 1920-1923, 1936, 1939,
1942-1943, 1959, 1966-1970, 1972, 1974-1980, and 1988-1990.
Additionally, Uruguay's pre-standard-time UT offset has been
adjusted westward by 7 seconds, from UT-03:44:44 to UT-03:44:51, to
match the location of the Observatory of the National Meteorological
Institute in Montevideo.

Enderbury and Kiritimati skipped New Year's Eve 1994, not
New Year's Day 1995. (Thanks to Kerry Shetline.)
Fix the 1912-01-01 transition for Portugual and its colonies.
This transition was at 00:00 according to the new UT offset, not
according to the old one. Also assume that Cape Verde switched on
the same date as the rest, not in 1907. This affects
Africa/Bissau, Africa/Sao_Tome, Asia/Macau, Atlantic/Azores,
Atlantic/Cape_Verde, Atlantic/Madeira, and Europe/Lisbon.
(Thanks to Michael Deckers.)
Fix an off-by-1 error for pre-1913 timestamps in Jamaica and in
Turks & Caicos.
Changes to past time zone abbreviations
MMT took effect in Uruguay from 1908-06-10, not 1898-06-28. There
is no clock change associated with the transition.
