966a7cbe96 tzdata: Simplify code removing not used cases
We shouldn't have an use-case where we'd use 'FUBAR' timezone so
instead of adding postinst handling for this use case we handle it at
install time and keep the Universal as fallback if user did something
wrong.

This also ensure the /etc/localtime file is kept as a symbolic link.
This will make timezone not available when /usr is in separated
partition (and not mounted) however the applications ought to fallback
to GMT timezone in this case and when /usr is made availble timezone
will work fine.

b3de8e18e2 tzdata: We shouldn't override the localtime if it is valid
The code where mistakenly replacing the localtime file setting so we
end with a copy of file instead of a symbolic link. This fixes it so
now, we'll only do that in case the link is pointing to invalid data.

8dd8f56f99 tzdata: install /etc/localtime alongside /etc/timezone
Lots of code (such a GLib) expects this to exist and link to the current
timezone definition.

/etc/localtime is a symlink instead of a copy of hard link to make it obvious
what timezone data it's pointing at. For systems with /etc on a separate
filesystem to /usr this will result in a dangling symlink until /usr is mounted,
but as this is early boot the assumption is that anything checking it will
handle that case and fallback to UTC.

3ad2505746 tzdata: this package isn't architecture specific
The data files are compiled to a binary but architecture-independent format, so
this package can be allarch.
