    DST law changes in North Korea.  Redefinition of "daylight savings" in
    Ireland, as well as for some past years in Namibia and Czechoslovakia.
    Additional historical corrections for Czechoslovakia.
    
    With this change, the IANA database models Irish timekeeping as following
    "standard time" in summer, and "daylight savings" in winter, so that the
    daylight savings offset is one hour behind standard time not one hour
    ahead.  This does not change their UTC offset (+1:00 in summer, 0:00 in
    winter) nor their timezone abbreviations (IST in summer, GMT in winter),
    though now "IST" is more correctly read as "Irish Standard Time" not "Irish
    Summer Time".  However, the "is_dst" column in the pg_timezone_names view
    will now be true in winter and false in summer for the Europe/Dublin zone.
    
    Similar changes were made for Namibia between 1994 and 2017, and for
    Czechoslovakia between 1946 and 1947.
    
    So far as I can find, no Postgres internal logic cares about which way
    tm_isdst is reported; in particular, since commit b2cbced9 we do not
    rely on it to decide how to interpret ambiguous timestamps during DST
    transitions.  So I don't think this change will affect any Postgres
    behavior other than the timezone-view outputs.
